Symptom: Spasms



Introduction: Spasms

Further information about Spasms is below, or review more specific information about these types of Spasms: seizures, tremor, twitches, tics, myoclonus, spasticity, chorea, Sydenham's chorea or other types.

A spasm is an involuntary movement of a muscle. Twitches or tics are examples of small-scale spasms. A full body spasm is known as a seizure (or fit). Fine body shaking or trembling, often in the hands, is known as tremor. All involuntary movement needs medical diagnosis.
