Overview & Considerations
This condition is usually a lifelong problem that begins during childhood and is characterized by involuntary neck, face, forearm, wrist, and hand movements. Facial grimaces along with tongue and jaw movements are often associated with involuntary neck movements.
Stress and activity often aggravate this condition, and relaxation and sleep help relieve the problem.
