Muscle Twitches In Left Arm.

Hi ajay it sounds like u have what I have, benign fasciculations. I have it mainly in my legs and feet although when im tired or stressed I can get them twitches anywhere! I also get a lot of pain. If ur concerned ask to be referred for a emg (electromyograph) to see just whats going on. I doubt u have anything sinister but it will put ir mind at rest. Hope this helps

I have been experiencing a twitch in my left arm below and on the inside of the elbow, near where the arm creases. Although it is not painful, it is very distratcing and persistent. I thought this may also be a benign fasciculation after reading up on muslce twitches.


Is there anything that can prevent or stop these? Can any medication cause these? I take zoloft, zocor, diovan and protonix.


How long can I expect the twitches to last? So far, it has been about 5 days. Thanks!!

I been having the same trouble but I also get tingling I found out from my doctor anything can cause it like a virus or stress or even a infection cuz your body freaks out I had a infection in my splean and liver and it made them enlarged so they were pressing on nerves and caused me to ahve twitches but you still should get it checked out the sooner the better cuz then you can stop it before it gets worst and also if you have panic attacks they cause alot of those things try to relax if that dont work get to the docs as soon as you can

Hi
I've also been experiencing twitching on my left arm just above my elbow. This just recently started happening. I've also noticed that it happens at night. What could it be? Is it something i should worry about?

Thanks

I found this web site trying to find information for my husband. His right arm began twitching in July. He tried massage, heating pad, and lessening weight training, but it did not let up, so he made an appointment to his primary care dr. The dr. told him it was probably an overused muscle and gave him an anti-inflamatory and told him to return in 2 weeks if it did not stop. Let me describe his symptoms: twitching in his right arm from his tricep to his elbow 24/7! After taking the medicine, and it not helping, he returned to his doctor. By this time he and I were concerned, because I had to him that he might have symptoms of multiple sclerosis, but it generally affects the legs, but has been known to affect the arms first in some individuals. Anyway, after this visit he told his doctor his concern and the dr. referred him to an neurologist. After waiting a month to see him, the neurologist did looked at him and did an exam and told him that he did not have a neurological disorder and to not think about it! He said that he continues to have the twitch that he could come back in a month and have a nerve test, but it is pretty painful. He reassured him that he had 25 years of experience and that he was a very healthy man. Mean while his arm still twitches and the day September 21. Does anyone have and suggestions? I forgot to mention the twitch is pretty strong you can see it and it feels like a pulse but not a consistent rhythm.
