Experiencing sudden jerks? Learn about myoclonus, its symptoms, causes, treatments, and recent research findings.
Sometimes, when you try to relax, an unexpected and uncomfortable sensation may occur involuntary muscle twitching. This twitching can vary from a minor tremble to an intense jitter, disrupting the quest for tranquility. These involuntary movements, potentially a condition called Myoclonus, are often sudden and brief, with varying intensity. They may be confined to a single area or spread throughout the body, and in severe cases, they can interfere with daily activities such as eating, speaking, or walking.
