Are you aware of what Dystonia is?


Just wondering if mainstream America has heard of or knows of this. It will be interesting to hear back. Just let me know if you have no idea, or what you think it is.

Dystonias are sustained involuntary muscle contractions, often distorting body posture. Dystonias can be primary or secondary, and they can be generalized, focal, or segmental. Diagnosis is clinical. Treatment is with an anticholinergic drug or reserpine for generalized dystonia and botulinum toxin for focal or segmental dystonias.
Please see the web pages for more details on Dystonia.

it is involuntary movement or jerking of muscles

Muscle spasms due to neurological problem

i dont know what it is sorry!

I know writers cramp could be a form of dystonia, that it can/cannot be genetic, it is involuntary sustained muscle contractions that cause freezing in the middle of an action and may be caused by lack of oxygen at birth.

All functions of the human body are told to work by your brain.the movements you make when you have Dystonia are not. Useually caused by damage to that part of the brain,but can be brought on by drugs or trauma.
