A member asked:

My upper left arm has been twitching for 6 days now, pretty much all day, in the same spot. should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Usually Ok: At your age this is unlikely to be part of a sinister process. Avoid caffeine and see how it goes. If increasing, consider seeing a neurologist.

My shoulder has been twitching at one spot for 5 days straight now, at rest, all the time. I hurt the that muscle during workout a week ago, but I pushed through the pain. Now it still hurts and twitches. Should I be worried twitching lasts so long?
