Signs Of Tardive Dyskinesia

Wiggling Fingers

Wiggling fingers are a symptom that occurs when there's dyskinesia of the limbs. Dyskinesia of the limbs affects the toes, fingers, legs, and arms. Patients might feel their fingers wiggle without their control over the movement. The movements might be slow or fast. If an individual has a job that requires typing or frequent use of their hands, they may find the finger wiggling impedes their ability to complete normal work tasks. It may also be difficult to do day-to-day activities like getting dressed, making food, and brushing teeth. If individuals have uncontrolled movements in their body, especially after starting or increasing a medication dose, they should talk to a doctor right away.
