Localized: This may be a harmless irritable superficial nerve or muscle since it is so localized. Avoid alcohol,caffeine and nicotine. See your physician if it persists,spreads or involves other muscles and appropriate tests will be ordered to check for low magnesium or calcium or electrolyte imbalance.
