HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such clinical condition could be due to muscular spasm, but it very unlikely that could cause the heart beat problem like you stated skip beat of flutter in my opinion this could be nonspecific, may not need any treatment but of course muscular spasm can be treated with "Tab Chlorzoxazone with Acetaminophen" once in day, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
