Meige's syndrome

Meige's syndrome is a type of dystonia. It is also known as Brueghel's syndrome and oral facial dystonia. It is actually a combination of two forms of dystonia, blepharospasm and oromandibular dystonia (OMD).
When OMD is combined with blepharospasm, it may be referred to as Meige’s Syndrome named after Henri Meige, the French neurologist who first described the symptoms in detail in 1910. The symptoms usually begin between the ages of 30 and 70 years old and appear to be more common in women than in men (2:1 ratio). The combination of upper and lower dystonia is sometimes called cranial-cervical dystonia. The incidence is about one case in 20,000 people.
==Symptoms==
Oromandibular Symptoms
*difficulty opening the mouth (trismus)
*clenching or grinding of the teeth (bruxism)
*spasms of jaw opening
*sideways deviation or protrusion of the jaw
*lip tightening and pursing
*drawing back (retraction) of the corners of the mouth
*deviation or protrusion of the tongue.
*jaw pain
*difficulties eating and drinking
*difficulties speaking (dysarthria)
Blepharospasm symptoms
*the first symptom to appear is an increased rate of blinking〔
*uncontrollable squinting/closing of eyes
*light sensitivity (photophobia)
*squinting/eyes closing during speech
*uncontrollable eyes closing shut (rare instances completely causing blindness)
In addition, in some patients, the dystonic spasms may sometimes be provoked by certain activities, such as talking, chewing, or biting. Particular activities or sensory tricks may sometimes temporarily alleviate OMD symptoms, including chewing gum, talking, placing a toothpick in the mouth, lightly touching the lips or chin, or applying pressure beneath the chin.
