ABSTRACT:
A method for alleviating spasmodic torticollis with the administration of antiviral agents. Based on clinical tests, spasmodic torticollis is a persistent herpes simplex virus infection and thus administration of antiviral agents has shown to alleviate the symptoms associated with the disorder. Based on therapeutic trials, patients receiving the recommended antiviral treatment, have experienced significant reduction or elimination of the abnormal tonic and clonic movements associated with ST.
