What is eyelid nerve twitching?

The nervous system is one of the most important systems in the human body. It is composed of countless nerve fibers that are distributed throughout the body and constitute the human nervous system. Once there is a problem with the human nervous system, a series of reactions will occur. Today I will introduce to you what eyelid nerve twitching is.

This may be related to eye muscle spasm, which refers to the involuntary twitching of the muscles around the eyes, which is what we usually call eyelid twitching. In most cases, the common causes of eyelid twitching are excessive use or eye fatigue, and excessive mental stress, such as operating the computer for too long, using the eyes for too long, and excessive mental stress before an exam. In addition, refractive errors, myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism can also cause eyelid twitching. These symptoms are mainly manifestations of irritation of nerve endings, so the symptoms are often limited to one side of the upper or lower eyelid. You can recover by relieving stress and getting adequate rest.

In addition, you can also do some simple treatments yourself. First, exercise your eyeballs, with both eyes looking diagonally upward to the right, diagonally downward to the left, diagonally upward to the left, and diagonally downward to the right. Then rotate your eyeballs in clockwise and counterclockwise directions respectively.

After doing eye exercises, press the Yuyao point (at the midpoint of the eyebrow) with your fingers until you feel soreness but no pain. The occurrence of spasm may be related to the overactivation of the neural structures in the brain responsible for movement regulation (such as the midbrain, basal ganglia, etc.), which makes the normal blink reflex abnormally excited. First, do eye exercises, with both eyes looking to the upper right, lower left, upper left, and lower right in sequence, and then rotate the eyeballs in the clockwise and counterclockwise directions respectively. After finishing eye exercises, press the Yuyao point (at the midpoint of the eyebrow) with your fingers until you feel soreness but no pain.

After reading the above situations, I wonder if everyone has remembered that although these symptoms are not too serious, they will cause serious problems if you do not pay attention to them. So if you find that your eyelids have the above symptoms and they are difficult to control, it is best to go to the hospital and seek medical treatment in time.
