Hi doctor, I had a minor hamstring injury last month and currently, I am receiving physical therapy. In addition, I visited a neurologist for peripheral neuropathy in my foot. Last year my neurologist diagnosed me with benign fasciculation syndrome (BFS). After the injury, I am getting twitches in the injured leg most of the time that is in my right thigh for past three weeks. But, there is no clinical weakness. I can also induce a twitch by tapping the injured inner knee area. My leg injury appears to responding slowly to the physical therapy. My question is, is it possible to self-induce a twitch in BFS? I heard that also in ALS condition one can self-induce twitch. This is bothering me now. Please explain.
