Does herpes cause muscle twitching?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Muscle twitching : I have had some patients complain of this issue. Herpes is a virus that lives in the nerves and when a nerve is irritated it can become hyper excited and cause the Twitching sensation. This should subside once the flare goes away.
