What would cause muscle spasms that last for days?

Occasionally I get muscle spasms. Might be in my thigh, or arm. This one is in my right arm, on the back side of the bicep. It's been twitching now for the last 4 days.

What would cause something like this, and what's the best thing to do, to try and get it to stop?

Absolute best way is to see a doctor. Magnesium, potassium, and Vit D deficiences are linked to muscle cramps.

@atlantic59 If nominated, I will not run. If elected, I will not serve. 😊

Get your sugar checked.

Friend of mine had terrible spasms and he found out he was prediabetic. Changed his diet, exercise and no more spasms. Sugar is under control as well.

Not sure if its a coincidence but he feels 100% better

Poor kidney function. You can google your symptoms..

@atlantic59 I agree 100%. Could be all the stress as well. I have a ton of anxiety. Almost had what I guess was a panic attack at work today because of family stuff going on. I started getting overwhelmed with thoughts and got up and made a phone call and everything was fine after that.

@atlantic59 can you work for me on the side, promoting an uplifting, healing ointment, that soon will come with sunblock and mosquito blend

@twiigss Anxiety is a serious issue. I don't want to diminish it either!

Make sure you're getting good nutrition and take a good vitamin supplement.

@TryingtoLava I know :) I gotta find a doc, but everytime I think I found a good doc, all they do is make up excuses for why I'm feeling a certain way. Or why my body is doing something. And the doc then says, you're young, and healthy, without running a single test lol.

@TryingtoLava thank God I didn't completely follow your advice. But you had me at 'push- ups'...

Magnesium deficiency, added bonus magnesium helps with stress.

Drugs?

twiigss · M

@Darkskiescoming Only dilantin which is a seizure medication and Excedrin for headaches. That's the only kind of drugs i take.

That happened to me. I was dehydrated and low on potassium and magnesium.
