I have had infrequent arm twiches for years, mostly when I rest my head in my right palm with my elbow on my desk. then the twitches occur mostly in the front right of the right shoulder.
I had a cervical fusion in august 2006, in the c4,5.6,7 area.
I also have atrophy in my right forearm and right bicep, plus it appears some atrophy in the right side of my back.
I am doing exercises under a physical therapy program but do not notice any increase in strength. As an example of the loss of strength in my right arm, I cannot shoot a basketball to the basket from the free throw line.
I have had two epidural injections for lower back disc problems,
L4 and 5. After the second injection I began to notice tingling in my back when I bend my head down. It is like a cascade of tingling from the middle of my back downward to my lower spine but sometimes includes the tricep area of my right arm. there is no pain and it hasn't grown since it began about six weeks ago.
I take Caduet, toporol, plavix, multi vitamin.
I am wondering if there is any way to get rid of the twitches, or if they may go away in time due to my cervical surgery. I should add that I am a 57 year old male.
