Hi! I m 22 years of age and since this morning I am feeling a twitching sensation on my left side in between my rib cage. I can also compare the twitching sensation as if a baby is kicking me in that area. I m not sure what could be the cause for that. It is an on and off occurrence.
Hi, It seems that you have muscle twitches or articulations. These are small, local, involuntary muscle contraction and relaxation visible under the skin arising from the spontaneous discharge of a bundle of skeletal muscle fibers. You might consult your doctor who can order 1. A few blood tests including thyroid function tests, 2. Serum electrolytes including Serum calcium and potassium levels. 3. Serum B12 levels In case the above tests are normal further testing can be done including - nerve conduction studies, Electromyography, etc. These tests might help to diagnose any underlying neurological issues.
