Involuntary mouth twitching should be considered whether it is caused by epilepsy, facial muscle spasm or stroke.
1. Epilepsy: as in partial seizures, involuntary mouth twitching is caused by abnormal discharges of neurons in the brain. The treatment of choice is anticonvulsant carbamazepine or sodium valproate.
2. Facial neuritis: the cause may be irritative damage to a part of the facial nerve pathway leading to twitching of the muscles of the corners of the mouth, which may be accompanied by intermittent twitching of the orbicularis oculi muscles. Treatment preferred drug carbamazepine, poorly treated microvascular decompression surgery.
3. Stroke: If patients with cerebral infarction damage the central nervous system and cause hemiplegia, the damage to the facial neurons will cause facial muscle spasm and involuntary twitching of the mouth. Treatment is mainly to actively improve microcirculation and restore blood circulation in the ischemic area.
If the above symptoms occur, and there are other causes of the disease, you should consult a doctor in time to find out the cause of the disease and treat the cause to avoid delaying the condition.
