Fasciculations: The sensation you described could be due to involuntary contraction of some of the muscle bundles. If it has persisted for more than two weeks, it would be prudent to consult a neurologist. Wish you good health!

Fasciculations: These happen to most people at one time or another, and three is no explaining the location. If you seem well otherwise, there is no worry. I think that a nerve twig is under repair, and the ending gets sensitized to a brief burst of acetylcholine.
