A member asked:

I twitch a lot what's going on, what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

?movement disorder: Not sure what you mean by twitching, as one could have muscle irritability, fasciculations, or limb adjustments like a dystonia, or frank tics such as Gilles de la Tourette. Maybe best to see a neurologist so the "twitches" can be analyzed. Could in fact be rather benign and mild.
