Brief Answer:
It should stop in a short while.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.

I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and I would try my best to help you.

I have noted your clinical details. Based on this, it seems to be a minor irritability of the muscles over the face. It settles down on own in a short period, with some relaxation and rest. There is no need to worry.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
