Spasm Movable

Mobile spasm (lat. spasmus mobilis) is a condition in which involuntary contractions of the muscles of the limbs, face or neck occur. These contractions can occur sporadically and last from a few seconds to several minutes.

The causes of mobile spasm can be different. Most often this is a manifestation of neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and the consequences of strokes. Other causes may include stress, fatigue, or lack of magnesium or calcium.

Main symptoms:

1. Involuntary contractions of the muscles of the face, neck, limbs

2. Episodic occurrence of spasms lasting from a few seconds to minutes

3. Painful sensations in the muscles

4. Movement and speech disturbances due to spasms of the facial muscles

Treatment for mobile spasm depends on the cause of its occurrence. Medications, muscle relaxants, physical therapy, and treatment of the underlying disease may be prescribed. It is important to consult a doctor to identify the causes and select effective treatment. With timely treatment, the prognosis is favorable in most cases.
