Recently, one of our group members with PD complained of “cramping” in a leg (one leg). I did a little research and found that this kind of problem may be fairly common in people with Parkinson’s Disease. Cramping and Dystonia – the latter is another type of involuntary muscle contraction – should be differentiated as the etiologies (causation) are different. Massage, heat (water bottles) and certain exercises may help in these conditions. See the following for more info on this subject: Muscle Cramps And Dystonia – Parkinson’s Association of Ireland https://parkinsons.ie/userfiles/file/LeafletNM4.pdf ) ART
