A member asked:
Why is my index finger having involuntary spasms?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Multiple causes: Spasms in the index finger can be caused by many things - excessive use can read to cramping of the finger. A low calcium level can also cause muscle spasms. If it is persistent, it would make sense to get an evaluation from your doctor.

Muscle/Neuro/Lytes?: There are many potential causes tht may be related to muscular, neurologic or electrolyte imbalances but all require physical evaluation.
