muscle beating
Introduction
Introduction Benign muscle twitch syndrome is a common neurological symptom characterized by involuntary fasciculation of the body's local muscles, which is what we usually call "meat jump." Both fasciculation and muscle fibrillation are important features of lower motor neuron damage. Most commonly found on the face and limbs, of course, can occur in any part of the body.
Cause
Cause
Although the exact cause of benign muscle beam syndrome is unclear, current research indicates that it is mainly related to the following aspects: exercise, acute viral infection, anxiety and drug use. Among them, long-term exercise is one of the most important causes of meat jump. Common drugs that can cause meat jumping are diuretics, corticosteroids, estrogen, and excessive caffeine. In addition, there are also studies that pesticides, especially chemical poisons such as organic phosphorus, can also cause meat jumps. In clinical work, we also often find that many patients are in such a vicious circle. The slight micro-small jump causes anxiety and anxiety, and the anxiety increases the meat jump. The aggravated meat jump further causes the patient's panic and anxiety.

Most commonly found on the face and limbs, of course, can occur in any part of the body. As its name suggests, a benign process does not progress to other serious neurological diseases, but it is very boring. Meat jumps can occur only in a small group of muscles, such as involuntary movement of the eyelids, or extensively involving the limbs or the whole body.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Muscle fiber tremor: Muscles have a constant and rhythmic contraction and relaxation at a frequency of 4 to 6 times per second, called muscle tremor, which is a symptom of central nervous system diseases. The tremor can start from the distal end of one side of the upper limb and then affect the ipsilateral lower limb and the contralateral upper limb. The lip, tongue, jaw and head are finally involved. Emotional excitement can aggravate the tremor and completely stop during sleep anesthesia.
Since there is no hard skull cover at the cardia, care should be taken to prevent damage to the brain. Eyeball beating consistent with the pulse is one of the symptoms of direct carotid cavernous fistula. Direct carotid cavernous sinus fistula is more common in trauma, and a few direct carotid cavernous sinus fistulas are spontaneous, mostly due to aneurysm rupture of the cavernous sinus segment of the internal carotid artery, which is indistinguishable from traumatic angiography. . Head or neck bloating and beating: more common in tachycardia, the patient feels palpitations, chest tightness, discomfort in the anterior region and swelling of the head and neck, and a sense of jumping. There may be palpitation, chest tightness, chest pain, black Mongolian, syncope, and its clinical features are sudden onset, sudden disappearance after treatment or self-limiting, sudden palpitations, increased heart rate, mental distress, fear, pre-mental discomfort, head Or neck swelling and jumping.
