Well, I've been having these weird muscle spasms recently, where my left leg or left foot will randomly twitch (very noticably) or when I'm sitting with both my feet down on something, that leg will just start shaking uncontrolably out of the blue, like I'm tapping my foot really fast, and it will just get faster and faster and a lot more obvious.....even when I concentrate ONLY on trying to make it stop, it doesn't.....like my leg won't listen to me.....Okay, so I mentioned in another thread that I cut a bit deep about 2 weeks ago.....like 3 or 4 inches long, 1 inch wide, and 1 inch deep when you hold the cut closed and it's on the top of my left leg.....I just kind of had a bit of a *connection* today and started wondering if the cut could be what started it, because it's not happening with my right leg, and I don't recall this happening before that cut.....Also, when I stand up, it's like that leg is more stiff than my right one, and feels kind of achy/sore like a bruise does, deeper down in my leg.....I don't know if I cut deep enough to hit muscle-----I don't even know if that would DO anything.....but I couldn't help but wonder if that might be what's happening.....Does anyone know anything about this sort of thing?

if oyu are resting oyur leg on your toes (with the heel up) the shaking is kinda normal - just resting on a nerve. if not then it could be worrying. the aching/stiffness i would say is down to having a bad cut that is not healing right now.

It could be that you hit a nerve and thats stopping some signals to the involved mucle(s), its unlikely to have that effect if you hit a muscle really-though this could be whats the cause of the aching. Have you been having these before you cut or not. I get this quite a lot (I can even be standing on my leg and it still do it) but mines due to other problems that I have.
I don't believe it started happening until after that particular cut.....o.0.....yeah, it gets really weird, even when I'm standing, like.....it will just randomly stop working and I'll fall a little bit.....

Hmmm....generally you know if you hit muscle, becuase the pain is so intense and the wound has to be fairly deep. It's possible that you have done some nerve or muscle damage, or it's also possible there is an infection in your leg that is causing the problems.
It's also remotely possible that you are having partial seizures (where only one part of your body shakes), but that is unlikely.
You should speak with a doctor because of the risk of this being permanent if you have done muscle or nerve damage.
Well it breaks my heart to see you this way,
The beauty in life, where's it gone?
And somebody told me you were doing okay,
Somehow I guess they were wrong.
When do you NOT hit reddish stuff?!!!!! There's BLOOD!!!!! You can't tell what color most other things are because it's bleeding, and as soon as you wipe at it, it's back again before you can get a good look.....they need a thing on here that tells you what each layer looks like and what symptoms occur with each one, so you know if you actually hurt it.....because for the life of me, I can't tell what's what!!!!! Gah. .....Pardon my stupidity here.....there's just a very slight color difference between each "layer"..... I'm not sure.....it's past the whitish layer, past the pink, past the yellow-orange bubble-things, yellow-orange-pink with no bubbles, then there's a pink layer and then a crevice-type thing.....It's healed up quite a bit already because I heal really fast, but if I accidently whack it on something, the new mushy skin rubs right off and starts it bleeding again.....ew.....=O

The shaking of your leg could also be caused by chemical inbalnces in the body. Certain factors increase your risk from suffeing from these, things such as having an ED, consuming lots of salt or drinking alcohol. Perhaps it is worth speaking to your GP regarding this issue as it obviously concerns you.
