A member asked:
Visibly twitching muscle on inside left calf, looks like the skin is bouncing up and down when it's going, what could be happening?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Muscle fasciculation: Often due to fatigue. Have you been exerting yourself? Traveling? Any drugs or meds? Sleep disturbance? Sometimes due to nerve problem. If it persists after a night's sleep, see a neurologist.
