Benign fasciculation syndrome (BFS) is characterized by fasciculation (twitching) of voluntary muscles in the body.

The twitching may be occasional to continuous. [2]

Calf muscle [41] Infantile-onset Hypertrophic calf muscles. Biopsy shows fibre size variation, increased internal nuclei, degenerating fibres, increased connective tissue and fat. EMG myopathic in affected muscles, normal in peroneal (outer calf) muscles. [41] Muscular dystrophy, autosomal recessive, with cardiomyopathy and triangular tongue ...
“The proportion of slow-twitch to fast-twitch muscle fibers in a particular muscle varies depending on the function of the muscle and the type of training in which an individual participates.
NMT is a diverse disorder. As a result of muscular hyperactivity, patients may present with muscle cramps, stiffness, myotonia-like symptoms (slow relaxation), associated walking difficulties, hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), myokymia (quivering of a muscle), fasciculations (muscle twitching), fatigue, exercise intolerance, myoclonic jerks and other related symptoms.
