  5. Ive been feeling a tingling sensation around my left eye, kind of like when you touch a nerve and feel a little pulse. Its not painful, but I can see my eyelid move a little when it happens. Its been going on for about 4-5 days now, and Im not sure if its just the "aankh fadakna" we sometimes hear about. Could you help me understand what might be causing this?

This sensation you are experiencing in your left eye, known as eyelid twitching or myokymia, is usually benign and can be caused by stress, fatigue, caffeine, or eye strain. To help alleviate this symptom, you can try using lubricating eye drops and practicing stress-relief techniques. Additionally, you can take a supplement containing magnesium to help relax the muscles.
