It usually continues until you relax a bit, since it's usually caused by stress.

Eye twitching is a type of localized muscle spasm called a fasciculation.  It can be a sign of mineral deficiency - especially magnesium, but also calcium and potassium.  Low levels of vitamin B6 (which is necessary for magnesium function) and B1 (which is necessary for energy production) can also be involved.  Even vitamin D deficiency might be a factor.\n\nTry a quality vitamin/mineral supplement.\n\nBest wishes and good luck!

Sometimes.  Usually about one week.  Get your doc to give you some valtrex.

If it doesn't go away, you should consider seeing your eye doctor.  Sometimes an eyelid twitch can be a sign of something a little more serious, like an internal eye infection.

Twitchy eye is quite funny, like being tickled. It happens when you're tired or stressed, and you think everyone else can see your eye having a little fit, but they can't. I don't know how old you are, but your blurred vision could be 'silent migraine'. This can start in children and as they grow up, the headaches follow. It could also be staring at a computer screen! Have your eyes checked. :-)

It differs every time. I know because I've done it. I think it depends on how long of a lick and stuff like that. But around 200-300 licks. It depends on the size of the lolipop also. =>

Nerve 'twitches' can be caused by many things. If you are using drugs, then this is probably the problem. Even if it is 'stress twitches' the drugs are increasing the problems. Did you know that it only takes less then 2 tenths of a second for cocaine to effect your body?? Just be careful... from someone who knows  ;)

Most eye twiches are harmless, involuntary spasms of the tiny muscles surrounding the eye. Some causes are fatigue, squinting a lot, consuming too much caffeine, or working in a less than ideal visual environment, e.g., staring at a computer screens for long periods of time. Just like a muscle spasm at any other part of the body, an eye twitch can mean you've taxed your muscles and need to relax them. At home treatments that may help include hot baths, warm or cold compresses, rinsing your eyes out with warm water, or administrating eye drops. However persistent, more violent eye twitches could be a symptom of other physical or psychological ailments, such as undue stress or temper tantrums, neurological damage, or even epilepsy. If your eye twitching becomes more persistent, a trip to the eye doctor would be well advised.

I don't know the duration of your hiccups and your age, as both are very important information for what you're asking.\n\nHiccups usually stop within a few minutes to a few hours.\nHiccups that last longer than 48 hours are called persistent hiccups and those that last for days are called intractable hiccups.\nIt is not often but intractable hiccups can cause exhaustion, lack of sleep, and weight loss.\nSometimes, although not always, hiccups that persist may indicate the presence of another medical problem and require an exam by a health professional.\n\nSo in case your hiccups are persistent and before you do any amateur remedy, I would suggest you visit a specialized doctor.\n\nI'm really not trying to scare you, but in my case persistent hiccups were a symptom of GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) that was in progress.

The most probable causes are\n1) Sleep deprivation\n2) Lack of vitamins\n\nSleep deprivation causes eye strain, as they don't receive the rejuvination effects of 8 hours of rest.  This causes strain on the ciliary muscles, and causes twitching much in the same way that sprinters' legs can be seen to twitch from exhaustion after a big race.\n\nA lack of vitamins is also an issue that should be considered.  Vitamins and minerals are essential for the proper working and coordination of your body.  Amino acids, in particular, require certain compounds that the body cannot produce.  Amino acids are associated with protein, and therefore muscles.  Again, the ciliary muscles may not be properly maintained and result in twitching.\n\nTry having a few naps during the day, taking multivitamins, or eating a well-balanced diet.

It happens involuntary.  And the one up above who said it stretches the skin.  How big does your mouth go.  Opening your mouth does not stretch skin around the eyes. Don't know why.

Well, the commonest cause of this is intoxication with certain medications. In cases where it doesn't go away in a few weeks, it could be "Horner's Syndrome", or it could be "Myasthenia Gravis".\n\nA Dr. would have to help you with this determination.  If it continues more than 6 weeks. It could be a sign of nerve damage, or a neurological disease.\n\nHORNER'S SYNDROME:\n\nHorner syndrome is a relatively rare disorder characterized by a constricted pupil (miosis), drooping of the upper eyelid (ptosis), absence of sweating of the face (anhidrosis), and sinking of the eyeball into the bony cavity that protects the eye (enophthalmos). These are the four classic signs of the disorder. \n\nThe congenital, and more rare, form of Horner syndrome is present at birth but the cause is not known. Most often, Horner syndrome is acquired as a result of some kind of interference with the sympathetic nerves serving the eyes. The underlying causes can vary enormously, from a snake or insect bite to a neck trauma made by a blunt instrument.\n\nMYASTHENIA GRAVIS:\n\nWeakness in specific muscles, problems with the nerves that move the eyes, drooping eyelid, or double vision, are the beginning symptoms of Myasthenia Gravis in two-thirds of patients. The severity of weakness fluctuates during the day, usually being least severe in the morning and worse as the day progresses, especially after prolonged use.

This can sometimes be caused by eye fatigue or strain. In many cases, too much caffine or other stimulants can have the same result. Try cutting down to one pot of coffee a day, and taking quick 1-2 minute breaks from computer work every 20-30 minutes. There is also a medical condition, called Blepharospasms, that can cause involuntary eye muscle movement or twitching. Blepharospasms can be treated by Botox. Hope this helps!
