Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. Try to increase your intake of water and fruit juices, especially fruit juice, in case it is due to electrolyte imbalance. If that does not help in 7-10 days it would be prudent to see your doctor, preferably a neurologist. Wish you good health!

Not likely: You do not describe worrisome neuromuscular issues and suspect benign focal fasciculations
