Patient's question:
Every move of a newborn is closely watched, for example, my sister's child is only three months old now. So, I would like to know the difference between infant twitching and trembling?Doctor's answer:
Neonatal convulsions and neonatal tremors can both manifest as paroxysmal rhythmic contractions of multiple muscle groups. It is common for multiple limbs or multiple parts to contract simultaneously or alternately. Due to the immature development of the neonatal nervous system, the induced excitement is easily "attributed." Generalized tonic severe pain, muscle stiffness, intermittent convulsions, opisthotonos, head bending backward from the body, eyes upward or fixed, unconsciousness.
