A member asked:

Eyelid/face twitching/spasms after doing chin ups, push ups, and chest dips. i have mild sore neck as well. no real pain. what's causing this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Myokymia: Random twitching of an eyelid, which happens in normal people, is called myokymia (an involuntary, spontaneous, quivering of a few muscle cell bundles within a muscle). Myokymia starts and stops spontaneously. In the eyelids, it can last a few minutes to a few days. It can be caused by stress, dry eyes, lack of sleep. I suspect your case is due to strain associated with the chin ups.
