I looked up what causes muscle twitching and this is what AI summarized:

“🤔 Causes of Muscle Twitching

Muscle twitching, also known as fasciculation, can be caused by a variety of factors. Here are some common causes:
⚡️ Common Causes

Fatigue: Overexertion or prolonged physical activity can lead to muscle fatigue, resulting in twitching.
Stress and Anxiety: High levels of stress or anxiety can trigger muscle spasms or twitching.
Dehydration: Lack of fluids can lead to electrolyte imbalances, causing muscle twitching.
Nutritional Deficiencies: Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals, particularly magnesium, calcium, and potassium, can contribute to muscle twitching.
Caffeine and Stimulants: Excessive consumption of caffeine or other stimulants can lead to increased muscle activity and twitching.
Medications: Certain medications, especially those affecting the nervous system, can cause muscle twitching as a side effect.
Nerve Damage: Conditions that affect the nerves, such as neuropathy or multiple sclerosis, can lead to twitching.
Medical Conditions: Some medical conditions, like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or muscular dystrophy, can cause persistent muscle twitching.
🩺 When to Seek Medical Attention

If muscle twitching is persistent, accompanied by weakness, or occurs in conjunction with other concerning symptoms (like pain, numbness, or changes in vision), it’s important to consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation.
Understanding the underlying cause of muscle twitching can help in managing and treating the condition effectively. If you have specific symptoms or concerns, feel free to share!“
