Hi there!

Well, without a clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your symptoms or comment specifically on the situation. Possibilities that may need to be considered include infections, inflammations, neuro-muscular issues, growths/ masses etc. It would be best to discuss the situation and the management plan in detail with your treating doctor.
Hope this helps.

Take care!
