<human>: My friend is female and 47 years old. She has been having the following symptoms for some weeks now: right hand and toes drawing up; neck drawing up/tightening and some mild muscle spasms as well; and some leg swelling every so often. She has had a CAT scan and blood work with everything coming up normal-- no signs of a stroke either. What could be the cause of these symptoms?
<bot>: Hello, Most common causes for mind muscle spasm and tightness are:1) Sprain2) Improper posture3) Improper workout4) Any injury5) Cervical Spondylosis in your case CT scan and blood work out is normal, so I think we can rule out cervical spondylosis. So, I will suggest you to review here with details history or consult with physician or neurosurgeon. I will advise doing regular physiotherapy as advised. Along with that keep proper posture at workplace. Do not do long workout, give a break. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
