What are the causes of muscle twitching

Patient's question:

Waist circumference, one round of muscle twitching, no discomfort. It's like the vibration of a mobile phone. My face has become thinner recently. It's been a few months.

Doctor's answer:

Muscle cramps, also known as spasms, are a phenomenon that occurs when muscles experience involuntary strong tonic contractions. In elderly individuals, muscle cramps are frequently observed during sports, especially during prolonged physical activities. The muscles most prone to cramping are the calf muscles (the muscles at the back of the lower leg), followed by the flexor muscles of the foot.
Advice: When a cramp occurs, do not panic. For mild muscle cramps, applying a stretch in the opposite direction to the cramping muscle and holding it for a certain period usually helps alleviate the pain. Avoid using excessive force during stretching, as it should be done uniformly and slowly to prevent muscle strain.
