Core Tip	Paramyotonia congenita (PMC) is a rare sodium channelopathy of skeletal muscle, first identified by Eulenburg. The distinguishing feature of PMC is paradoxical myotonia, where myotonia worsens with cold and exercise. In instances where genetic testing is unavailable, electromyographic (EMG) is a swift, cost-effective diagnostic and differential diagnostic method for PMC. This article elaborates on the EMG characteristics of a recently diagnosed PMC case at our hospital. In this particular case revealed the two types of myotonic discharges, and had not been documented in other studies. We underscore two distinctive features: Giant-amplitude potentials and irregular waves.
