Submitted by admin on Tue, 04/28/2015 - 16:45

Approximately 60~70% of stroke is due to cerebral infarction, which involves the condition when the brain cannot get enough blood flow due to clogged cerebral vessels. As the blood carries necessary nutrients and oxygen to the brain cells, cerebral ischemia permanently damages brain cells near vascular legions.

Torticollis is a stiff neck associated with muscle spasm. It accompanies the condition of one’s head tilted to one side due to lateral flexion contracture of the cervical spine musculature. Although torticollis has generally been treated with medications or muscle relaxing injections, these non-surgical treatments often cannot cure torticollis completely.
