Neurology still remains one of the most underserved specialties of medicine in Pakistan with roughly one neurologist per million people.

Movement disorder emergencies can be classified based on MD phenomenology and we will provide a brief overview of dystonia including acute dystonic reaction, PAID syndrome and dystonic storm; chorea,
