Muscle twitching (fasciculations) are small, rapid, involuntary contractions visible under the skin surface. They are usually harmless and related to fatigue, caffeine, or stress. Persistent or widespread twitching may need further evaluation. Ayurveda manages this through Vata-pacifying therapies.
