“…Phenomenology, age of onset and clinical course are useful features to help differentiate from organic causes, and diagnosis often requires expert consultation [79]. A new movement disorder, which may initially be mistaken as being functional, is surgical mask-induced dystonia/dyskinesia [80]. This report included two patients -one treated with antiparkinsonian medications and with severe small vessel disease on MRI exhibited oromandibular dyskinesia with complete resolution when not wearing a mask.…”

Purpose of reviewThe purpose of this review is to outline the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on movement disorder holistic care, particularly in the care of people with Parkinson disease (PWP). Recent findingsAs the pandemic unfolds, a flurry of literature was published regarding the impact of COVID-19 on people with Parkinson disease including the direct impact of infection, availability of ambulatory care, loss of community-based team care, and acceptability of telemedicine. SummaryCOVID-19 has impacted the care of PWP in numerous ways. Recognizing infection in PWP poses challenges. Specific long-term complications, including emerging reports of long COVID syndrome is a growing concern. Caregivers and PWP have also been impacted by COVID-19 social isolation restrictions, with radical changes to the structure of social networks and support systems globally. In a matter of weeks, the global community saw an incredible uptake in telemedicine, which brought benefits and pitfalls. As PWP adapted to virtual platforms and the changing architecture of care delivery, the pandemic amplified many preexisting inequities amongst populations and countries, exposing a new 'digital divide'.

“…Recently, we have introduced an interesting but a quite rare type of oromandibular dyskinesia (OMD) induced by face masks. 1 A patient with this type of OMD or patients whose OMD exacerbates with masks might be encountered, in movement disorder clinics. However, a more frequent issue may come across the clinicians, especially psychiatrists and neurologists.…”
