Chorea
Chorea is a nerve disease that causes the body to move in jerky, uncontrollable ways. It can affect many different parts of the body. It is caused by a problem in the basal ganglia, which is a part of the brain that helps coordinate action. Chorea can be the main problem or a sign of a deeper problem, like Huntington's disease, which is a genetic issue that affects the basal ganglia. Chorea can also be caused by infections, autoimmune diseases, or medicines.
Symptoms of Chorea:
The arms, legs, face, and other parts of the body move suddenly and uncontrollably, and coordination and balance problems are also common.
The intensity of the symptoms can vary a lot, and chorea can sometimes make it impossible to do daily things.
