A member asked:
Recently, i have random small involuntary movements from my limbs. what does that mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If the involuntary movement limits within a muscle of your arm or leg it is called fasciculation or muscle twitching which is usually benign. However, if the whole arm or leg shakes or move involuntarily, it could be abnormal. If these movements persist or happen more often you may need to see a neurologist.
