you know when you get muscle twitches, like little spasms what causes them?

Ive gotten muscles twitches for awhile but i dont know why they are caused, and my eyelid (only the one) has quite frequent spasms now whioch started just a couple of weeks ago, can anybody explain why this is?

Cheers

I've had that happen a bit in the past actually, not so much lately though.

 

I figure it's the Southern Hemisphere.

no i get them as well. Rescently ive been getting loads over the bridge of my nose.

 

I figure its just nerves shorting out, and it seems to be related to when your tired.

fatigue/stress

It can (but not always) be a signal of an electrolyte imbalance. Last fall I had an annoying eye twitch for a couple of days, and at a doctor's visit for something else discovered I had a severe imbalance and was at risk for a heart attack...the doctor said in restrospect the spasms were a signal. most of the time eye twitches aren't that serious, but muscle spasms can be a sign of chemical imbalances.
