Symptom #9: Muscle Spasms
Our muscles are controlled by electrical impulses that send signals telling them whether they should contract or relax. These signals are sent and received in just moments, making our movements and reactions more or less instant. If the nerves are impeded in sending these signals, though, then it can cause mixed messages to be sent.
If the wrong messages are sent then it can cause the muscles to contract involuntarily, leading to muscle spasms. These can be quite painful and the patient is often powerless to do anything about it. The patient might also find that they experience abnormal physical reactions to stimuli.
