The importance of staying calm When muscle contractions are not part of a neurological condition and are "harmless," there is no specific treatment. Your doctor may recommend trying to reduce or avoid possible triggers of muscle contractions, such as stress, caffeine, and strenuous exercise. There is limited research on the effectiveness of certain medications. But take a deep breath. The first thing many people do when they experience a symptom is to rush to Google and see what's available about it. The first results that appear when searching for the term "fasciculations" suggest that the symptoms could be associated with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis). Many things can cause muscle twitches, including fatigue, anxiety, or even a pinched nerve in the spine. Anxiety can also be a trigger for muscle twitches, which can worsen or prolong episodes of fasciculations. Therefore, it's important to talk to your doctor if you are experiencing this.
