FOCAL DYSTONIA
Focal dystonia is a neurological condition affecting a muscle or group of muscles in a specific part of the body causing an undesirable muscular contraction or twisting. Many people with focal dystonia have continuous pain, cramping and relentless muscle spasms due to involuntary muscle movements. Other motor symptoms are possible, including lip smacking.
There are dystonias affecting the eyes, lower jaw, arms, hands, legs and neck. Some people even have more than one part of the body affected which makes relief that much harder.
Forms of Focal Dystonia
Over 20 years ago, I was diagnosed with a focal eyelid dystonia (also called Blepharospasm), which affects the eyes. Twice I tried the common treatment option, eye injections. These treatments affected my eyes and the side of my face and created for me an artificial smile. Later I found out about a whole food and nutritional supplement program that nourished my brain and body. Within six weeks, my symptoms dramatically diminished. Maybe since this nutritional program helped me, it could help you.
