Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Abnormal movement involving limbs, body and oral area is most likely due to movement disorder.
Parkinsonism is the possibility.
Get examined by a neurologist for evaluation.
Brain MRI may be required.
Drugs like Dopamine, Agonist, Rasalect, Entecapone can be used under guidance.
