Females are affected more than males, regardless of race. Typically, patients afflicted with hemifacial spasm are in their 40s or 50s.
Diamonds don't affect demographics, but some demographics may own more diamonds than other demographics.
Demographics are the quantifiable statistics of a given population. Demographics are also used to identify the study of quantifiable subsets within a given population which characterize that population at a specific point in time.

LOL because of this and that

There are many symptoms of a hemifacial spasm. They include muscle movement in the patient's eyelid and around the eye. The muscle movement can vary in intensity.
The cause of hemifacial spasm has been linked to overactivity of the seventh cranial nerve nucleus that signals facial muscle movement. In other instances, hemifacial spasm may be caused by compression by a mass or abnormal blood vessel.
I am suffering from hemifacial spasm disease and have got administered Botox Injection for 04 times with a passage time of at least 06 months. Kindly advise me that is a surgical treamtment will cure my disease or so. Please advise.
This is called essential blepharospasm or hemifacial spasm. The entire set of muscles may be involved or half may be affected (mehifacial).
The vast majority of patients responds favorably to injections with a low rate of complications. A small percentage of patients improves spontaneously, and benefits from psychotherapy, surgery, or oral medications.
What causes your spasm in the left side of your face is called "Hemifacial Spasm". It usually begins with a twitching of your left eye and later would progress to affect your face and mouth. It has something to do with the 7th cranial nerve located near the back of your ear. Treatment includes Botox or surgery known as MVD (a brain surgery).
The mainstay of treatment is injection of botulinum toxin to the face, which results in temporary paralysis of selected muscles of facial expression. Botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox (Allergen Inc.), is a neuro-toxin.
Focal dystonias may affect the neck (cervical dystonia or torticollis), the face (one-sided or hemifacial spasm , contraction of the eyelid or blepharospasm , contraction of the mouth and jaw or oromandibular dystonia
Classic hemifacial spasm (HFS) is generated by a compression on the facial nerve near the brainstem, usually by a blood vessel, inside the skull above the spinal cord. So the general answer is No. Some people have compressions but don't have HFS. Can head trauma start the spasms going, if there is a compression already there? I've read a lot of the medical literature, and nobody talks about this kind of "kindling" event. Can a head trauma "push" the contents of the skull in and make a compression? I've not seen that in the literature, but there was an article about a bony prominence inside the skull causing the compression.
That really is absurd. The condition known as blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm are conditions that are genetic and cannot be helped. Why on Earth would you thinks its a bad omen? You sound like someone who's looking for ridiculously bad things even when they don't exist.
Such genetic disorders as Treacher Collins syndrome and hemifacial microsomia affect between one in 3,500 and one in 10,000 children.
If your face starts to vibrate, it could be a sign of muscle spasms or a condition like hemifacial spasm. Stress, fatigue, or nerve irritation can trigger muscle twitches or vibrations in the face. If it persists or is accompanied by other symptoms, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for evaluation and guidance.
