A member asked:
My daughter is 10months old, and has started to tic/twitch is it serious bc she is so young?

Probably not.: Would need to know more details, like are her eyes open are closed? What is she doing when the movement happens, is she awake? If these are twitches upon falling asleep these common and benign, whereas a flurry of twitching upon awakening is more likely to be a concerning condition. Video tape the movement if you can and bring it to her pediatrician for review. Good luck!

Twitch: You need to check it out with your doctor asap. May need to see a pediatric neurologist. Maybe nothing but definitely check it out
