General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Twitching sensation in the hands & the legs is commonly due to dehydration, vitamin D deficiency, deficiency of minerals like calcium & magnesium, lack of adequate sleep, stress & anxiety.

However medical conditions like diabetes, thyroid issues or any developing neurological problems may trigger the symptoms.

Get physically examined, assessed, get all tests(CBC, Urinalysis, Nerve conduction tests, nerve biopsy, other tests if required) & Imaging tests(CT, MRI, EEG) get done & treated at the earliest.

In the meantime take food rich in vitamin B6, B12, Folic acid, and minerals. Take nutritious, home made food. Do regular exercises.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Nupur K, General & Family Physician
