A member asked:
I have had a twitching jaw for about 20 mins every day for about 6 weeks. no weakness. jaw moves fine. always had body twitches for years. worrying?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
20 minute twitch: The description of the problem suggests the twitching might be related to an activity, time of day, or relationship. Twitches (tics) can be annoying but commonly relate to fatigue, anxiety, tension of some sort. The clue is that most of the time it is not there.
