Neurological Disorders
- Horizontal jerking movement is characteristic of opsoclonus, a type of abnormal eye movement often associated with neurological disorders.
Aortic Insufficiency
- A distinctive symptom of Aortic Insufficiency is a diastolic murmur heard best along the left sternal border, which is due to backflow of blood from the aorta into the left ventricle.
Parkinson's Disease
- A 'mask-like' face is a classic feature of Parkinson's Disease, characterized by reduced facial expressiveness and rigidity of facial muscles.
Nephrotic Syndrome
- In Nephrotic Syndrome, patients often present with periorbital edema (swelling around the eyes) and a swollen, pale face, resulting from protein loss in urine leading to low albumin levels.
Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJ)
