Which of the following is NOT a symptom of hypocalcemia?

Muscle weakness is not typically associated with hypocalcemia. Instead, hypocalcemia is characterized by symptoms related to neuromuscular excitability and calcium's critical role in nerve conduction and muscle contraction. Common symptoms include tingling in the fingers, toes, and lips, which occur due to increased neuromuscular excitability; laryngospasm, which is caused by spasms of the muscles in the throat; and coagulopathy, as calcium is fundamental for the clotting cascade.

In contrast, while muscle weakness can occur in various conditions, it is generally more often associated with other electrolyte imbalances or neuromuscular diseases rather than being a direct symptom of low calcium levels. Understanding these symptoms helps in identifying and managing hypocalcemia effectively.
