Physical therapy for focal hand dystonia



Some Key Words for understanding Focal dystonia/ Writing cramp is that it's Debilitating, specific to a certain group of Muscles, specific to a certain group of tasks(Playing music / typing through a keyboard), usually due to the "misrepresentation of the area in the Primary motor area/ hyperactivity of the brain cells), management is through Physical therapy and CNS depressants, and they are mainly compensatory therapies to improve the functionality.

Unfortunately there's no cure for this condition

Torticollis is also considered a variant in this condition.
