What is myocy?

Myocymy is a condition that causes involuntary muscle movements. It can affect the face or any muscle groups in the body, especially smaller clusters such as fingers. Myocymy can happen in itself, but often a symptom of another neurological or movement disorder.

face myocymia usually occurs in the eyelids and affects the muscles of the orbicularis oculi, which controls the opening and closing of the eyelids, resulting in twinking eyelids. This may be due to excessive stress or consumption of alcohol or caffeine, which is usually temporary and disappears without treatment. The condition may also be a sign of hemifacial convulsion, a disorder that begins as a twitch of the eyes and eventually affects one side of the face. Face Twitching can also be a symptom of bleparospasm, a disorder that worsens the brain ability to control movement properly.

myocymia of limbs may be in the form of lighting or intense spasme. The condition may occur in the arms and legs, but it tends to often prevent control of the movement of the hands. It may be a symptom of multiple sclerosis, disorder that damages the nervous system and reduces muscle movement control. The involuntary movement of the limbs can also be a sign of hypothyroidism in which the thyroid does not provide the body with enough hormones to properly control metabolism and energy levels. Although jerking or convulsions are the most common symptoms of myocymia, they can eventually lead to other symptoms. Constant involuntary movement can cause convulsions or stiffness in the affected area or can also lead to pain and fatigue.

If myocymy is caused by a lifestyle, this may not require treatment, especially if the culprit changes. Some people may not consider the condition that they are enough to seek treatment or change their lifestyle. If the condition is a symptom of basic health, this may withdraw from an existing problem, although movement disorders often do not haveIt eats effective treatment.

Lighting can help reduce the frequency of constant movements, but is usually under the supervision of a healthcare professional to avoid deterioration. Anticonvulsive drugs can also be prescribed to control excessive involuntary movements, especially if they occur enough often to prevent everyday activities. Drugs prevent the brain from sending unsuitable movement signals into the muscle nerves.

Some factors may worsen myocymia or increase the likelihood of occurring. Mental or physical stress, such as depression or lack of sleep, can cause episodes. Eye stress to read or share on a bright computer or television screen can also make the eyelid twisting.
