A member asked:
Random parts of body jerking while wide awake - like part of my thigh or my bicep or foot or hand, what causes this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fasciculations?: Most likely these scattered "jerks" represent benign fasciculations, which are self-limited and non-progressive. When and if muscle weakness or atrophy were to accompany, then, reason to see your doctor. Otherwise, no clear reason to worry.
