Hello,
Sudden twitch in the head with a sensation of vomiting commonly occurs due to anxiety. But such involuntary muscle movement can be indicative of developing neurological problems.
You are suggested to avoid negativity, avoid people who cause you stress/ anxiety or tensions.
You are suggested to get examined by a neurologist before symptoms get worse(tremors & shaking). Get Nerve conduction tests done, get Imaging tests done if required.
Your treatment will depend upon the pathology detected. In the meantime take vitamin B6, B12 supplements with folic acid.
Take adequate sleep, exercise regularly, stay well hydrated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
