Cervical dystonia (CD) is a neurological movement disorder that causes the muscles in your neck to contract (tighten) involuntarily. This muscle tightening can cause you to hold your head and neck in painful, abnormal positions. These positions can cause you to face challenges and discomfort in your day-to-day life.1
Normally, your brain sends chemical signals to your head and neck muscles to keep their movements smooth and controlled. In patients with CD, these signals work improperly. When acetylcholine, one of the chemical signals, is released at above-normal amounts, it causes muscles to be tense and overactive.
In some cases of CD, causes can be linked to neck, head and shoulder injuries, and certain drugs.2 While the exact cause is not clear, research is still being conducted to explore the factors that can contribute to CD.
Typically, CD symptoms are gradual and include:
Pain is a common complaint of most patients with CD:
