Hi, I would like to tell you about a symptom that I have had for a few months now.
I have noticed my tongue doing a single contraction.
I performed a brain MRI which showed nothing.
could it be a first symptom?
Here is the video of my tongue twitch.
Specific:
- every time it is single.
- during the day it can happen that it happens as well as that it doesn't happen (maybe I don't notice it sometimes)
- sometimes I can provoke it (like pressing the tongue on the upper palate)
- the symptom of contraction is localized only and exclusively in that point
- I speak of contraction because it does not like fasciculations but it is only a single contraction
- the tongue from the contraction as seen then relaxes after a second
- if the contraction occurs while I am speaking obviously I am wrong to pronounce
- the symptom has been present for a few months which I do not know how to quantify. they can be 4 like 3 like 5.
thank you all and sorry for my english but i am italian
how can i upload the video? it only lasts 3 seconds and you can clearly see what happens
