Is there anything i can do about the hand/forearm pain associated with dysgraphia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dystonia: Writer's cramp is a type of focal dystonia in which patients report pain and distortion of the hand and forearm while writing. Few medications may be tried. However, the best alternative may be botulinum toxin chemodenervation (botox). Consult with your physician for proper diagnosis and care.
