Do I Have Some Sort Of Ocd Or Tourettes Syndrome?

I'm not sure why, but for a really long time I've been having some sort of panic to flex certain muscles until they feel right. I'm not sure how to describe 'feel right' however it's really bugging me now and it just happens and I don't even notice it. Do I have some sort or ocd or tourettes syndrome?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Random muscle twitching is commonly seen with stress and anxiety.
But better to first rule out calcium and vitamin d 3 deficiency.
So get done serum calcium and vitamin d 3 levels and if Deficiency than you will need supplements.
If levels are normal then stress, anxiety (OCD) related muscle twitching is more likely.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
