Difference between Gamma-Aminobutyric acid and Spasmodic torticollis

Gamma-Aminobutyric acid vs. Spasmodic torticollis

gamma-Aminobutyric acid, or γ-aminobutyric acid, or GABA, is the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. Spasmodic torticollis is an extremely painful chronic neurological movement disorder causing the neck to involuntarily turn to the left, right, upwards, and/or downwards.
