Causes of Twitching

My 11yr old son has facial twitches that started with his eyes ,Jaws which is become worst and can't control it...what could be causing this?

Facial twitching can be due to a number of reasons and generally starts at a younger age. It may aggravate in the period of anxiety or emotional distress. Although not all twitches are harmful, the underlining cause can be many times serious.


Some of the causes for facial twitching include Tourette’s syndrome, hypocalcemia, hypoparathyroidism, or tetanus. Consult a specialist to diagnose the exact cause for appropriate treatment.
