Twitching/muscle Spasms In Arm Posted: 04-09-06 18:08pm
My 10 yr old daughter is having muscle
spasms/twitching in her right arm. It is
between her elbow, and shoulder. The arm
every few seconds spasms. Her arm and
hand shake since this started. It was
noticed after she vacuumed and we thought
maybe she pulled/strained a muscle.
Started 4 days ago. Did see Dr. And she
said to drink alot of gatorade, and eat
bananas, and see if goes away. Was
thinking low potassium possibly. If not
better in few days, then we'll do
bloodwork. Does anybody have any ideas?
She has been extremely healthy, until
kidney stones which occurred in february.
I don't know if this is neurological, or
not. Her Dr. Did have her try pushing
her hands, pulling, cked reflexes etc.
That seemed to be ok. Any input would be
appreciated. Thanks.......
