A member asked:
Whenever i yawn real big it feels like my muscles in my abdomen and my clavicle area constrict. i have to flail around for it to stop.

Check labs: You might be tensing all these areas when you yawn and it could be a habitual thing which you need some help changing. However the 'flailing around" sound unusual and it would be advisable to get your blood electrolytes checked to be sure you are not deficient in magnesium or potassium or have abnormal calcium levels.
