I m having spasms or twitching in my let hand. it feels like it originates in the area between mt thumb and index finger. causing my index finger to twitch uncontrollably. I m just wondering if i should be worried or if i should set up an appointment to get looked at. This started about a week or so ago.
You need to take calcium supplements for a two week course and if the condition improves there is nothing to worry.
In case the supplements will not work in a week or two you may need to visit a orthopedic surgeon for further evaluation. This condition can be because of dehydration too. Keep yourself well hydrated with plenty of fluids.
Hope the answer to your. Wish you a good health ahead.
Regards Dr Muzaffer Hussain Parray.
