What Causes Twitching In The Eye, Lips And Facial Spasms In Siblings?
Is there something that causes facial muscle spasms? I have times where my eyelids twitch and just now my upper lip was twitching and spasming. Also my sister has had severe and painful involuntary facial spasms that even make her mouth and face distort beyond her control. She has seen doctors and was even screen for CP, which luckily was negative.
