    [​IMG] A 26 year old man presents to the emergency room complaining of painful spasm of his neck. He feels like his neck is locked to the right. Last week he was diagnosed with schizophrenia and yesterday he started to take his medications. There is no history of trauma or previous similar attack.

    What is the most likely diagnosis?

    A- Dystonia

    B- Akathisia

    C- Parkinsonism

    D- Tardive dyskinesia
