Weird muscle twitching?

How do you get rid of muscle twitching?

  • I've been having a lot of muscle twitching lately, mostly my upper left arm. It twitches almost all the time. I think it might be a combination of stress and poor nutrition, because I'm under a lot of stress and I haven't been eating much lately because of it. How can I get rid of this muscle twitching?

  • Answer:

    Twitching is a sign of magnesium and/or potassium deficiency! Either eat healthy (bananas, especially!) or take a magnesium and potassium supplement.

i like to do a quick workout using the muscle in question, then stretch it out thoroughly.

I had the same issue and found out my b12 was low. b12 is found in red meats, poultry and dairy but even if you get enough sometimes the body doesn't absorb it the way it should. You can get a blood test to check your b12 level. If it's low they will give you a b12 injection and may have you start taking supplements. I had two injections and have been taking the sublingual (under the tongue) b12 supplements. 2 days after I got my first injection the twitching stopped. It can be serious because b12 plays an important role in the nervous system and being low for a long time can cause permanent nerve damage. I'm so glad I asked my doctor and didn't just listen to everyone who said it's just stress. Even my doctor said that at first but when I told her it was almost nonstop e ordered some blood work....good thing!
