CANCER SYMPTOMS: THE CANCERS THAT CAUSE MUSCLE TWITCHING

CANCER SYMPTOMS: THE CANCERS THAT CAUSE MUSCLE TWITCHING

The different types of cancer that may cause muscle spasms or twitches.

Seizures

While seizures mostly arise from epilepsy, a brain tumor can irritate the brain’s neurons and cause tingling, twitching, or muscle contractions.

Visual changes

If a tumor develops in the occipital lobe, temporal lobe, or brain stem, one may have double or blurred vision. Another indicator is eye-twitching.

Inability to react to speech

Tumor development in the temporal lobe, parietal lobe, and frontal lobe can cause speech problems, which relate to cognitive function. For instance, the frontal lobe manages decision-making, problem solving, concentration, and thinking speed functions.

I understand from my research that cancer can spread to the spinal cord through metastasis, producing a range of sensory symptoms. Could this lead to muscle spasms?

 Definitely, yes.

Which body parts are more prone to twitching caused by cancer?

  • Eyes
  • Legs
  • Prostate
  • Breasts

In my free time, I love to paint and go on long walks on the beach. One of my latest obsessions is sudoku – a wonderful activity to calm an unease mind.
