Synkinesia Pathological

**Pathological synkinesis** is an uncontrolled motor reflex that is caused by a weak stimulus and leads to increased activity or contraction of other muscles. This phenomenon may manifest itself as involuntary movements that occur along with voluntary movements, or as muscle contractions that contribute to the automatic completion of the motor chain.

**Causes of pathological synkinesis**

Although the exact cause of pathological synkesia is unknown, it is believed that it can be caused by various factors, such as disruption of the central nervous system, dysfunction of the brain centers responsible for controlling motor activity

Synkinesis is involuntary movements that are always accompanied by voluntary ones and are often the same as them. Many muscle groups have synkinesis, but in the sphere of labor activity the limbs that perform any voluntary movement are involved. They act as a form of manifestation of human motor activity, being a symptom of some motor diseases. In accordance with the syndromes, the following types of pathological synkinesis are distinguished:

Charlatan, or kinetic (or reflex). Monoarticular, i.e., having a specific mechanism localized only in one or two joints. Ocular, i.e., confined to the ocular apparatus. Myoclonic, present in muscles. Cortical, which records manifestations on oneself, but may not affect professional activities. Somatic, affecting a separate part of the body. Okumonitornaya, affecting the entire visual apparatus. Articular and sphincterial. The above explanation will give an understanding of the existing type of pathology, and will also lead to an answer to the question of whether a person can encounter this phenomenon. Synkinesis itself is a neurological syndrome accompanied by the spread of automatisms and involuntary movements. Why is it so important to take them into account when providing medical care to a person?
