Trapped nerves in BOTH eyes - HELP!

Angellore · November 2011

Aaaargh! I have a trapped nerve in my left upper eyelid and another in my right lower eyelid. It's driving me mad! Anyone gt any ideas/advice on how to stop it? I know it will go in time but anything which might make it go a bit fater would be great!

I've had a twitch in my left eye for about three weeks now, so my advice is going to be pretty naff!

However, a damp flannel over the eye, with a slight massage is supposed to help.

I get this all the time when I don't get enough sleep or exercise too hard! Here's a great site with various causes and possible solutions. Good luck"!

I keep getting that this last couple of weeks also! I notice it flares more at times of high stress, either mental or physical.

Thank you, i'll go and have a look at that now.

I thinks it probably because I'm tired as I did a night shift a couple of nights ago so I expect my body clock is a bit messed up still.

I get this if I am really stressed or not sleeping well, or if I am deficient in my diet. I had it really bad when I had Adrenal Fatigue a few years ago.

Calcium and Magnesium are helpful (I drink Peter Gilliam's Calm -- I purchase it at Whole Foods. You can likely get it at your local health food store, or online). Also Potassium.

And, B12 can be helpful:

Good luck, I know it can be annoying!
