What Causes Twitching Sensation In The Right Foot?
I have Parkinsonism A Typical and have been on Carp/Lopadopa for years. I was having more trouble with my balance and had been falling. My doctor added .5 mg Rasagiline at bedtime 1 1/2 weeks ago. Now my right foot is constantly twitching (for hours), to the point that it hurts. Is this common!?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per my clinical experience, the twitching of particular foot can be from various reasons as
@ Deficiency of micro nutrients as zinc, cobalamine, B12
@ Nerve compression or irritation at proximal level
@ Circulatory changes in terms of micro angiopathy
@ Others
Hope this information will help you.
Take care.
