You might want to check out this website for more infromation about pediatric dystonia.

We are a Multiple Sclerosis forum and most of our *expertise* is in that area.  MS is rarely seen in a child as young as your daughter and is a disease of the central nervous system.

Good luck with searching for the answers ...  having a child who is ill is every parent's worst nightmare. If we can be of more help, please let us know.

My daughter's age is 22 months (less than 2 years), Symptoms observed is stiff leg problem in left knee for the last 2 months. As per Neurologist it could be Dystonia and suggested MRI Brain.

Hi and welcome to the forum here.

We might need a bit more information before making any suggestions as to what to do next-
such as:

How old is your daughter?

What are the symptoms that she has that caused the need for an MRI?

What type of doctors are you already consulting?

The use of the word *minimal* makes me think that the radiologist was not concerned with what was seen on the MRI.

We'll look for you to come back and tell us more.
