What Causes Twitching Of Skin And Pupil?
Question: My skin and pupil are twitching on the left side of my face. I might also describe the situation as one of constricting. It is very annoying. This started about 1 month ago. It might last for 15 to 20 minutes, then go away for an hour or two before I have another spell.
Brief Answer:
Peripheral neuorpathy/lack of vitamins/minerals/diabetes...
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX
I have gone through your medical history and I can say that the twitching you facing on the left side of your face is related to:
- possible peripheral neuropathy
- lack of vitamins/minerals (Mg, vit.B complex)
- metabolic diseases (diabetes)
For the moment, I advise to consult with neurologist to rule out neurological problems.
Meanwhile, I advise to take multivitamin supplements containing vit.B complex and Mg.
Hope it answered to your queries!
