"Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes the muscles to contract and spasm involuntarily. The neurological mechanism that makes muscles relax when they are not in use does not function properly. Opposing muscles often contract simultaneously as if they are “competing” for control of a body part. The involuntary muscle contractions force the body into repetitive and often twisting movements as well as awkward, irregular postures. There are approximately 13 forms of dystonia, and dozens of symptoms."

I can't quite explain what it is, but my dad had a girlfriend who had that, and she moved all weird all the time, kinda like the muscles spazzing out and contracting on their own. It caused her severe pains, and my dad said her neck and back was sometimes hard as rock. She had to get like 5 shots in the back of the neck once a month. There was this other guy who had it so bad that he ended up in a wheelchair, although when I first met him, he used to walk and ride his bike. Was pretty sad seeing him in that state a couple of years later.
