What Causes The Twitches In Leg, Hand And Fingers?
Should I be worried about my 13 year old daughter s leg, hand, and finger twitches? She has no pain or weakness when it happens and it does not happen when she is sleeping. She is an active girl and plays fastpitch softball several days a week. I believe for the most part she is not aware of it but I am a little nervous.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you are suffering twitches in leg, hand and fingers. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like multiple sclerosis , diabetic neuropathy , pinched nerve , disc problem or side effect of some medicine . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination.Doctor may order blood test along with nerve conduction test along with CT scan and MRI of spine . Doctor may order nerve supplement along with anti inflammatory , physical therapy , . Doctor may also recommend surgery in case of severe disc problem . For now drink plenty of water and eat healthy .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
