Hi,
How are you? What other symptoms are present? Fasciculations or fine twitching of the muscle fibres under the skin can be completely benign or can be due to underlying medical condition such as when  the nerve supply to the muscle is damaged or compromised.  For proper evaluation, it is best that you have this checked by your doctor. Complete neurological examination and additional diagnostic tests may need to be done. The diagnosis of ALS is primarily based on the symptoms and signs and result of neurologic examination. Have this checked by your doctor for proper diagnosis. Take care and regards.
