C. asks about
eye twitching:

I have had a twitch
in the top lid of
my right eye for
almost a month now,
and i was
wondering
if it could be
anything medical.?
it isnt constant,
but it does go on
for most of the day.?
it doesnt seem to
affect my sleep,
but it is very
annoying.

Dr. Joshua’s answer:

Don’t worry - it’s not uncommon, and it’ll go away within the next weeks or so. The best treatment is to not worry about it. Stress/lack of sleep/anxiety etc. can provoke this little nuisance. If it’s not gone within 4 weeks from now, come back to my blog and I’ll give you further suggestions.
