segmental dystonia
Segmental dystonia is the term given to the dystonic condition when 2 areas of the body are next to each other. Dystonic spasms affect at least 2 adjacent areas of the body, such as facial and neck muscles; muscle groups of the neck and upper arm; or trunk and leg muscles.
One common segmental dystonia involves muscles of the eyelids, jaw, mouth, and lower face. Known as Meige Syndrome, the condition is characterized by periodic or sustained jaw opening or closure, clenching or grinding of the teeth, sideways displacement of the jaw, lip tightening and pursing, and tongue protrusion. In addition, this form of segmental
dystonia may spread to neck muscles or other muscle groups. Meige Syndrome, more frequently affects women than men and typically becomes apparent during the sixth decade of life.
Over 25 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.
