Background
- Common term for various conditions of head and neck dystonia
- Spasmodic torticollis is an abnormal contraction of the muscle in one side of the neck.

- Anterior horn disease
- Cervical fractures and dislocations
- Cervical radiculopathy
Jaw Spasms
- Acute tetanus
- Akathisia
- Conversion disorder

Evaluation
- Clinical Diagnosis
- Consider cervical X-ray to rule out fracture or dislocation (unlikely to be necessary if no midline tenderness or history of trauma)
Management
Acute
- Pain control and muscle relaxation (PO benzodiazepine or opioid)
Chronic
- Benztropine
- Muscle relaxants
- Botulinum toxin
- Physical Therapy
Disposition
- Discharge
