My eyelid has been twitching every 10 mins for the past 3 days. It’s getting quite annoying.

Besides punching my eyeball what else could I do?

    Take some potassium supplements.

    Twitchy muscles are a sign of low potassium.

    Potatoes are a better source than bananas, by the way.

    Also, trust your food cravings. I bet if you look up the nutrition info on whatever food you’ve been craving during this time, you’ll find it’s high in potassium.

    Happened to me often. Drink more water and eat potassium filled foods like bananas

    If you’re desperate enough to ask for home remedies on the internet, then you’re desperate enough to see an actual doctor. This issue might be more complicated than it seems.

      This. There’s a new disease going around. You feel perfectly fine except for your eye twitching, and then bam! you die.

      I’ve cheated death far too many times to go out by something like Eye-Twitch Disease.

      I’ll die in an exciting and glorious way like an exploding fireball off a cliff.
