Hello!
A week ago I had really strong twitching in my left forearm that lasted for 3-4 hours, then, 1 day later I developed twitching in my left triceps that lasts for around 6 days now.
I experience twitching when I twist or bend my arm, it was constant when I do that for the first 4 days, then 5th day I didn't notice it and this morning it started again. My forearm didn't twitch anymore after that first twitch btw.
Also, when I work that muscle, for example do 10 pushups, twitching stops for the next minute or so.
I don't notice any weakness in hand, , so I was wondering if this could be ALS?
What scares me is that it is only 1 muscle, triceps, and I would like to ask you, if someone did have twitching as first symptom, would it stop shortly after using that muscle or not?
I have no obvious weakness in the hand of course, but I saw that it doesn't mean much since there are ppl who didn't have it too.
I am 28y old btw.
Thank you very much!
