What Causes Tremors In The Body While Suffering From Primary Dystonia?
my neurologist says I has primary dystonia.I t began with my right foot muscles pulling my foot sideward and tremors in my right hand. I am taking carbidopa now but I am experiencing contracting muscles in my right foot now and periods where my body jerks on its own.. Could that be a symptom of something else?

Hi,
Consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
It is a part of movement disorders. An MRI is required to rule out central causes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
