Baby hitting themselves and screaming frequently, should I be concerned?

Does anyone else’s baby hit themselves then scream?? I find this unsettling and I’m concerned.
I’ll bring it up with my doctor but looking to find answers as he does it often.

Is it more jerky movements they aren't in control of?
I would make an appointment to see your HV.
