I had眼袋 removal surgery two days ago, and today I noticed some twitching in the under-eye area. What could be causing this?

After眼袋 removal surgery, twitching of the under-eye area may be caused by poor sleep or inadequate postoperative care leading to wound inflammation. It could also result from excessive stress or frequent熬夜 causing eyelid muscle spasms. Additionally, improper surgical technique during the procedure may cause varying degrees of tissue and skin damage, or stimulate nerves, resulting in under-eye twitching.
