It is a clinical syndrome with relatively slow, purposeless, continuous involuntary movement of fingers, toes, tongue, or other parts of the body. Athletosis can be found in a variety of encephalopathy and is characterized by slow and irregular twisting of the hands and feet. Hand, foot, and spine movements are increased and reduced movements of the walking muscles in the distal limbs.

Hand, foot and tremor syndrome are found in Huntington's disease, Wilson's disease, hepatic encephalopathy, Hallervodern-Spatz disease, phenothiazine and haloperidol chronic concomitant poisoning. Hand and foot asthma are more common in patients with stroke, and various sedatives To temporarily relieve involuntary movements such as phenobarbital diazepam and so on.
