I have the foot twisting, toes curling under, cramping, type of dystonia on my PD side. When this happens I have to stop doin' whatever I'm doin' and stretch my foot and my achilles and my calf muscles. I got the best advice from a physiotherapist who works with more than a few PWP's and seems more knowledgable than most on Parkinsons. I hope this is of some help. ............... murray [log in to unmask]
