A member asked:

Curious about lip spasms/twitching. the right side of my lower lip seems to pull/spasm at times. it doesnt do it at rest. only if im talking or laughing, and even then it only happens sporadically. what are some possible causes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible causes are anxiety & dehydration consider limiting sodas & coffee. Eat a well balanced diet and sleep 7-9 hours. If symptoms become more than sporadic, see your primary care for a possible referral to a neurologist. Your lips are innervated by a large, facial cranial nerve. Keeping a log will help your doctor as well as any history of trauma. Your dentist can do a basic cranial nerve exam
