CAUSES OF CALF MUSCLE TWITCH www.rmrm.com
Introduction Muscle twitching, or fasciculation, can have several different causes – some are less serious while others can include neurologic disorders or peripheral nerve damage.
Intense exercise or physical activity Twitching can occur after such activities as the muscles are fatigued and need to repair themselves.
Electrolyte imbalance Electrolytes, such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sodium, play a vital role in muscle contraction and relaxation. An imbalance in these electrolytes can disrupt muscles and contribute to twitching.
Dehydration One of the most common reasons for calf muscle twitching is dehydration. Muscles need an adequate supply of fluids to function properly.
Nutrient Deficiency Inadequate intake of essential nutrients, particularly vitamins and minerals, can contribute to muscle twitches. Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals may lead to calf muscle twitching.
