WHAT DOES DYSKINESIA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Dyskinesia

This article may be confusing or unclear to readers. In particular, it assumes the reader is already familiar with the terms dystonia, palsy, and rabbit syndrome; and can distinguish between the broad term "Parkinsonism" and Parkinson's Disease. It overuses medical terms and seemingly needlessly throws in unrelated disorders. Keep in mind not all readers can define acute. No suggestions on talk. Please help us clarify the article; suggestions may be found on the talk page.

Discoordination can also occur internally especially with the respiratory muscles and it often goes unrecognized. Dyskinesia is a symptom of several medical disorders that are distinguished by their underlying cause.
