eyelud miokimiaAlthough neurologists for the miokimia or eyelid twitching or MP (episodic involuntary contraction of the lower eyelid) does usually more serious, is a frequent cause of consultation.

Patients usually suffer from panic to see in the mirror and keeps your eyelid contract without being able to control is sometimes close to a patient that you mentioned this annoying condition. The patient will automatically think the worst diagnosis: brain tumors, epilepsy, the onset of facial paralysis, etc., But fortunately is very wrong.

For peace of patients by far the most common cause of PD is anxiety or stress. Most patients are tired, has not slept well for several days or had problems at work or home. Then the treatment is first of all try to relax, try to disconnect (it is that you can) the problems, sports, etc.

If the MP is very upset or ashamed to have her patient, anxiety may be indicated to lower your anxiety level. the problem with anxiety is that people are very sensitive to them and are permanently “dazed” after taking the drug. In addition, the MP does not disappear immediately after taking the anti-anxiety, it is usual to take several days before this contraction is reduced involuntary “nervous.”

As it is extremely rare to find an organic cause of the MP, it is rare that additional tests are needed to make the diagnosis.

So the advice is to relax and if they have at some point the MP, is a good time to take a break or decrease engine speed, is the easiest way to get better.
