Huntington's disease or chorea (HD) is an incurable neurodegenerative genetic disorder that typically manifests itself first in middle age. It is the most common genetic cause of abnormal involuntary writhing movements called chorea. There is no cure for HD, but there are treatments available to reduce the severity of some of its symptoms.
