Fluttering belly button, skin discolouration, twitching eye. Stress?
human
Hey. I ve been experiencing some fluttering under my belly button recently. I am a 21 year old male. I also have skin discoloration on my inner elbow (it was reddish at first, it has been 3 weeks now and it is now a very light - almost faded - brown). My eye also has a constant twitch. I have no idea if these three are all related, but my inclination is that it might be all from stress. Is this possible?

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query. Your symptoms such as fluttering of the nelly button and twitching of the eye could be anxiety-related. Anxiety can manifest itself with not only psychological symptoms, but with physical symptoms also. If you are having recurrent such symptoms or having difficulty managing your stress, then I would advise you consult a psychiatrist for a detailed psychological assessment and further treatment. There are effective treatment options - in the form of medication or counselling / psychotherapy which will help you overcome your problems. Wish you all the best. - Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar Consultant Psychiatrist
