do you suffer from spasmodic torticollis?have you discovered anything to alleviate symptons.?


Question:
i.e. alternative medicines,herbs certain foods , or drink----this condition gets worse in hot weather-------serious answers only please.

Answers:
I worked with a man with focal torticollis dystonia- he was sometime paralysed and it runied his life but he has built it up again- the only way he gets by is by taking his pills and he has botox injected into the muscles in his neck- he also works out at the gym as this strengthens the muscles-
I dont know of any herbal remidies because it is a very strong thing that happens but look at things to keep you calm and your muscles relaxed.

Other Answers:
I have had tortocllis the only thing that helped me was doing the exercises and taking the pain meds.
I imagine a massage would be beneficial.
I have a mis-shapen bone in my neck and my neck half dislocates and traps the nerves in my arm, I end up holding my neck onto my shoulder as it is too pain full to move my neck for a few days.
The hospital called it tortocolis so who am I to argue. :)
