Hello,
Dysgraphia is a deficiency that is related to writing. It is important that if you suspect that your daughter may have it, to send her to be examined by a doctor.
If the doctor confirms that your daughter does have dysgraphia, he may arrange for her to have therapy to assist her to improve her writing skills. The therapy will have to be geared towards the cause of the problem, this being muscular or neurological.
I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.
