About Twitching (the broader symptom)
This summary describes Twitching, the broader symptom. Bilateral Twitching is a more specific topic.
Muscle twitches are fine movements of a small area of muscle. MedlinePlus says many twitches are benign, often affect the eyelids, calf, or thumb, and are often triggered by stress or anxiety. Nervous system conditions named on that page include amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and neuropathy.

When to seek care
MedlinePlus says to contact a health care provider if muscle twitches are long-term or persistent, or if twitching occurs with weakness or loss of muscle.
