Causes of muscle pain

“Remain calm, because peace equals power.”- Joyce Meyer

Common causes of muscle pain include the following:

-Twitching can occur after physical activity because lactic acid accumulates in the muscles used during exercise. It most often affects the arms, legs, and back.

-Muscle twitches caused by stress and anxiety are often called “nervous ticks.” They can affect any muscle in the body.

-Consuming too much caffeine and other stimulants can cause muscles in any part of the body to twitch.

-Deficiencies of certain nutrients can cause muscle spasms, particularly in the eyelids, calves, and hands. Common types of nutritional deficiencies include vitamin D, vitamin B, and calcium deficiencies.

-Dehydration can cause muscle contraction and twitching, especially in the body’s larger muscles. These include the legs, arms, and torso.

-The nicotine found in cigarettes and other tobacco products can cause muscle twitching, especially in the legs.

-Muscle spasms can occur in the eyelid or the area around the eye when the eyelid or the surface of the eye is irritated.

-Adverse reactions to certain drugs, including corticosteroids and estrogen pills, can trigger muscle spasms. The twitching may affect the hands, arms, or legs.
