What Causes Shivering Of Legs?
My left leg shivers (trembles) uncontrollably when applied pressure like when I am holding the clutch/brake of my car or while I am attaching fan to the ceiling and standing on a table. These are not frequent though, I have noticed this a couple of times. Is there anything I have to be worried about?

Hi,
This is a normal phenomenon and occurs because of the inadequacy of the required muscle to maintain that posture for long time. Sometimes, stress is also responsible for the same. All you need to do is to practice that movement again and again to increase the strength of the muscle and to negate the stress factor responsible.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
