Hi XXXXXXX,

Thank you for posting your query.

The most likely cause for your symptoms is benign fasciculations. In this condition, involuntary muscle twitchings can occur randomly in various parts of body. This is a harmless condition and is not of any adverse consequence.

You should take balanced diet and eat on time. methycobal tablets (vitamin B12 supplements). In addition, dry fruits, fish and eggs would be useful.

I hope it helps. Please get back if you have any more queries.

Best wishes,
