3 Year Old. Excess Blinking Of Eyes, Slight Twitch In Fingers, Toes. What Could Be Done?

Hi Dr. My 3 year old son has recently started excessively blinking his eyes and making a little hmm sound. Yesterday I noticed he did not do it all day, but last night before he went to sleep he started doing it. I also noticed that throughout the night his fingers and toes slightly twitch. Im trying not to panic over this before I contact his dr. TTomorow, but Im getting really worried! Please help. Thank you, Aundraya

Pediatrician 's  Response
I don't think u need to panic.
if he watching television before goin to sleep or is excited or agitated before he goes to sleep he may have these problems.
Hypocalcemia can give rise to these symptoms as well.
Try to calm him down before he goes to sleep.Go for the checkup.
Hope he gets over this soon
