Suggest Treatment For Muscle Twitching In Right Hand
My left hand ( top of my thumb and index finger) have been twitching and contracting all day everyday for 2 weeks straight. I m a 26 year old female who is right handed. I know twitches are normal but its been going on for a while, and is constant throughout the day. What could cause this and should i be worries?

Thanks for asking at Healthcare Magic. I read your question and I understand your concern.
Twitching in thumb, calf and eye muscles are benign and due to stress or anxiety.
I would like to advise you not to be worried it's on/off and will disappear in few days.
However if muscle size was decreasing by comparing with other side or there were abnormal sensations then consult your healthcare provider.
Do regular excesersize, relaxation excersizes like Yoga, meditation.
Hope it helps best.
Take your best care.
