What Causes Twitching Sensation Under The Right Eye?
Thank you, For the last two days my face feels like it is twitching under my right eye. No one has commented so it probably isn t actually twitching. I think when it first started it did twitch for a minute. But now it like a ghost twitch if that makes sense. If it s nothing to Bre concerned about Incan live with it but I want to make sure it isn t a symptom of something serious

Muscle twitches without other accompanying symptoms are very common and benign conditions. It may last from few minutes to a few days. The commonest causes for muscle twitching are-
-Sleep deprivation
-nerve irritation
-Problem at neuromuscular junction
-local muscle injury
A light massage of the affected muscle sometimes relieves the twitch.
If the twitch is still there after a week or so then I would suggest a visit to a doctor.
Hope this answers your question, thank you.
