Myoclonus
A person with myoclonus experiences sudden, involuntary lightning jerks. Myoclonus may develop in response to various conditions, including prolonged oxygen deprivation to the brain, infection, head or spinal cord injury, stroke or brain tumors.
Tremor
A patient with tremor experiences involuntary, rhythmic muscle contraction and relaxation (oscillations or twitching) of one or more body parts. It is the most common of all involuntary movements and can affect the hands, arms, eyes, head, vocal chords, trunk and legs.
