What causes dystonia?

There are many types of dystonia**, which are divided into two categories: primary and secondary. The details are as follows:

1. Genetics: abnormalities in DYT1, DYT5, DYT6 and DYT25 genes can cause dystonia, and positive DYT1 can easily affect adolescents and children, forming primary and generalized dystonia, with rapid progression and severe symptoms; DYT5-induced dystonia, known as dopamine-responsive dystonia, responds well to medopa** and can be performed by levodopa**;

2. Trauma: Trauma can cause dystonia;

3. Drugs: After taking levodopa for a long time in Parkinson's disease, levodopa-induced dystonia can occur;

5. Idiopathic dystonia: no abnormality in genetic testing.

Dystonia is a movement disorder syndrome characterized by dystonic movements and postures caused by uncoordinated or excessive contraction of agonist and antagonist muscles, and is characterized by involuntary and persistent characteristics.

Dystonia is a movement in which the contractions of the agonist and antagonist muscles are uncoordinated or excessive, causing abnormal muscle tone.

**A lot, check it out specifically.

Dystonia belongs to the category of spasmodic diseases in traditional Chinese medicine, and the seizure population is relatively wide, so let's take a look at what factors can cause dystonia in life? And how can we prevent it**?

**。Dystonia is mainly a movement disorder syndrome caused by uncoordinated contraction of agonist and antagonist muscles, or excessive contraction, which is more common in cold exertion, malnutrition and disease-induced, involuntary and persistent, manifested as abnormal tonic movements and postures.

**。(1) Drugs**.

Traditional Chinese medicine medicine** For dystonia, you can choose licorice, poria cocos, and astragalus to replenish qi and nourish blood, Yujin and Angelica sinensis to promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, and hook vine, cinnamon branch, ephedra, etc., which can be used dialectically according to the symptoms of the disease.

2) Acupuncture**.

For dystonia, such as hypertonia or weakening of the patient, acupuncture can play a good role in achieving two-way regulation, taking Neiguan, Jiquan, Quchi, Weizhong, Sanyinjiao, Kunlun and other acupuncture points, which can regulate yin and yang, invigorate blood and replenish qi, soothe meridians and activate the meridians, so that the flow of qi and blood is smooth, and the effect of internal irrigation of internal organs and external moistening of the intestines.

Dystonia, also known as dystonia or dystonia, refers to a group of disorders in which muscles contract excessively or relax excessively. Dystonia symptoms can vary depending on the patient and the specific condition, but common symptoms include:

1.Muscle stiffness (rigidity): People have difficulty stretching their muscles, often resulting in limited joint motion and stiffness.

2.Muscle spasms and twitches: Muscles contract and relax involuntarily, which can lead to pain and limited movement.

3.Muscle weakness: Muscle weakness or difficulty in control.

4.Movement disorders: Patients may present with gait abnormalities, coordination problems, balance difficulties, etc.

5.Pain: Dystonia may cause constant or intermittent pain, often associated with muscle tension, cramping, or stiffness.

6.Joint deformity: Long-term dystonia may lead to joint deformity that further limits the range of motion of the joint.

Dystonia can be caused by a variety of causes, such as diseases of the nervous system, genetic factors, medications***, infection, or trauma. Diagnosis and dystonia require evaluation by a medical professional, which may include medications, physics, occupation, and surgery.

Dystonia is a movement disorder characterized by abnormal movements and/or posture caused by persistent or intermittent muscle contractions, and is a movement disorder syndrome characterized by dystonic movements and postures caused by uncoordinated or excessive contraction of agonist and antagonist muscles. It is characterized by involuntary and recurring.

According to **, it can be divided into primary and secondary dystonia. Primary dystonia is generally genetic. Secondary muscle tone is caused by a certain **: such as.

Parkinson's disease, Wilson's disease, Huntington's disease, ganglioside, perinatal injury, infection, drug-induced, etc.

The type is classified by age of onset.

Infancy and early childhood (birth to 2 years);

childhood (3 to 12 years);

adolescence (13-20 years);

early adulthood (21-40 years);

Late adulthood (> 40 years).

Classified by **.

Hereditary: including autosomal dominant inheritance, autosomal recessive inheritance, X-linked recessive inheritance, mitochondrial inheritance, etc.

Acquired: includes perinatal period.

Brain damage, infection, drugs, poisoning, vascular disease, brain damage, etc.

There are also a small number of sporadic and familial idiopathic cases.

Classified by symptom distribution.

Focal: only one area is affected, such as Meijer syndrome (blepharospasm, ororomandibular dystonia), cervical dystonia, writing spasm, etc.

Segmental type: 2 or more adjacent body regions are involved, such as craniosegmental dystonia, bilateral upper extremity dystonia, etc.

Multifocal: 2 unadjacent or 2 or more body regions are affected.

Systemic type: involvement of the trunk and at least 2 other sites.

Hemiphysis: Half of the body is affected.

Classified by accompanying symptoms.

Simplex: dystonia is the only motor symptom.

Complex: dystonia with other movement disorders, such as myoclonus or parkinsonism.

Dystonia is a syndrome of involuntary, persistent muscle contractions that cause twisting, repetitive movements, or abnormal posture.

There are many types of dystonia**, which are divided into two categories: primary and secondary. The details are as follows: 1. Heredity:

Dystonia can be caused by abnormalities in DYT1, DYT5, DYT6 and DYT25 genes, and positive DYT1 can easily affect adolescents and children, forming primary and generalized dystonia, with rapid progression and severe symptoms. DYT5-induced dystonia, known as dopamine-responsive dystonia, responds well to medopa** and can be performed by levodopa**; 2. Trauma: Trauma can cause dystonia; 3. Drugs: After taking levodopa for a long time in Parkinson's disease, levodopa-induced dystonia can occur; 4. Neurodegeneration:

For example, pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegenerative disease or neuroacanthocytosis, including ferritin dysposition, can cause secondary dystonia; 5. Idiopathic dystonia: no abnormality in genetic testing.

Dystonia is a dyskinesia syndrome characterized by dystonic movements and postures caused by uncoordinated or excessive contraction of agonist and antagonist muscles, and is characterized by involuntary and persistent characteristics. In this case, it is recommended that you actively take her to the hospital for treatment, you can do drugs, botulinum toxin injections or surgery, you have to have a specific examination, and decide the ** plan according to the condition.
