What are the dangers of hypertonia in children? How do you deal with it?

It is easy to fracture the phenomenon, it is easy to produce the phenomenon of imbalance in the body, it is always impossible to sit still, and the limbs appear to be soft. If you find this phenomenon, you should take your child to the hospital in time.

Muscle tone refers to the degree of tension in the relaxed state of muscles, which is the basis for maintaining normal movement of the human body. If the child's muscle tone is relatively high, it will lead to cerebral palsy or epilepsy. Both high and low muscle tone are abnormal manifestations and can be relieved by swimming and massage.

High muscle tone in children can lead to stiffness and uncontrolled hands and feet, poor coordination of limbs, easy falling, and in severe cases, cerebral palsy. If you find that muscle tension is high, you must pay attention to it and go to a regular hospital to do ****.

Children's hypertonia should be corrected in a regular hospital, otherwise the child will walk, so once the child's hypertonia is found, go to the hospital for examination in time. Otherwise, you will miss the child's correction period.

At this time, children will often get angry easily because they are uncontrollable and will have all kinds of spasms. All parents have to do is to observe their child often and correct his various postures.

It can cause muscle stiffness, which can lead to uneven muscle growth, it can also lead to stunting, it can lead to malnutrition, and it can also lead to mental decline. We must pay attention to the cultivation of the baby, but also pay attention to the baby's motor ability, pay attention to the baby's development, and pay attention to the baby's physical health.

Hypertonia in children will affect children's movement and normal development, there will be problems such as stiffness of limbs, neck back, etc., it will be difficult to control their body, and the main reason for children's increased muscle tone is cerebral palsy, which will bring great difficulties to children's lives. At ordinary times, you can massage more parts of the body to relieve nerves, and you can also let your child go swimming, swimming can inhibit the continuous increase in muscle tone.

It will cause problems with the child's movement, and there may be symptoms of joint pain, which requires reasonable training.

Children with high muscle tone may have abnormal postures that cause greater bradykinesia, such as tilting the head backwards, stiffness, difficulty bending the upper limbs, and inability to roll over. Due to the increased muscle tone in both lower limbs, babies are unable to sit on their own and fall backwards easily. When standing, the lower limbs are crossed in a scissor shape, and the pointed feet cannot walk alone.

When these findings are present, most are due to cerebral motor cortex disturbances, and most occur in high-risk children, such as preterm infants, low birth weight infants, and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

Normally, muscle tone is higher in newborns, and it gradually decreases in infants over 3 months of age. There are two manifestations of increased muscle tone: spasticity and rigidity.

Spasmody is more common in pyramidal tract lesions, whereas rigidity is more common in extrapyramidal lesions. High muscle tone is usually an indication of varying degrees of damage to the baby's brain. If the baby's muscle tension is too high, it will be more irritable and irritable, it will feel scared when it hears the sound, cry non-stop, it will be difficult to fall asleep, it will be difficult to put the arm into the sleeve when dressing, it will be difficult to break the fist when taking a bath, and when the lower limbs enter the bathtub or water, the child's whole body will immediately become a stiff posture, etc., therefore, the baby's muscles are tense and prone to various diseases such as cerebral palsy.

Because this situation is extremely harmful, it should be taken to the hospital in time to avoid delaying the condition and causing more harm to the baby.

It's that the muscles are always tight. At the same time, the high tone of the muscles is manifested in the muscles, but the cause of the high muscle tone is a problem with the nerves of the brain. The nerves in the brain do not properly process the nerve signals transmitted by the muscles, resulting in unnecessary overtension (high muscle tone) or excessive relaxation (low muscle tone).

For babies with high muscle tone, we can clearly feel the increase in resistance when we bend, stretch or rotate the baby's limbs, making it difficult for muscles and joints to be pulled or moved. If you stretch hard, the baby will feel pain and cry.

As a result, the problem of muscle tension is accompanied by varying degrees of cranial nerve damage – half of the babies with muscle tension are children with cerebral palsy, the other half have vision or other disability problems, and only a small percentage are pure muscle tension.

Muscle extension will be impaired, and abnormal posture will be made; You can teach your baby to swim, enhance your baby's muscle flexibility, make your bones strong, and massage your baby can also effectively relieve your baby's muscle tone.

It is very harmful, because it is likely to affect the child's bone development, and may also cause the child to have some diseases or arthritis, which will affect the child's physical and mental health development. In this case, you must give your child medicine in time, and then you should also give your child some nutritious food, pay attention to the balanced combination of nutrition, and let your child exercise appropriately.

It is likely to cause deformities in the limbs, such as when the muscle tone in the legs is too high, which is likely to lead to abnormal walking conditions, such as walking on tiptoe or lameness.

Hypertonia is a common condition for many babies, if the baby has high muscle tone, it has a great impact on the baby's health, so what impact will the baby's high muscle tone have on the baby's growth? Let's take a look.

1. What is the impact of high muscle tone on the baby's growth?

If the baby's muscle tension is high, it is likely to cause the baby to have joint pain and muscle pain, and it will also lead to the baby's joint deformation, so it is very unfavorable to the baby's growth and development, and in serious cases, it will also affect the baby's daily life and the quality of sleep. And if the baby has high muscle tone, it is likely to cause the baby's motor function to be disordered, and it will cause the baby to be unsteady when learning to walk in the later stage, and there will be some obstacles when doing other sports.

2. What are the manifestations of high muscle tone in babies?

1. Many babies are very easy to be irritated by some things when they have high muscle tone, and they will be frightened when they hear some sounds, and it is particularly difficult to fall asleep at night, etc., and when dressing the baby, it is difficult for parents to put the baby's arm smoothly into the baby's sleeve, and the baby's lower limbs seem to be particularly afraid of water when it touches the water, and when the baby is bathed, it is difficult to break the fist, so if the baby has these symptoms, You should take your baby to the hospital for a check-up, as it is possible that the baby has high muscle tone.

2. If it is a particularly small baby, you can observe the baby's legs when the baby changes diapers, generally the normal baby's legs can be opened to about 120 degrees, but if the baby has high muscle tone, then the baby's legs are not open so big, generally 4 months old baby can do some small jumping on the parents' legs, but some babies will only stand straight on the parents' legs, and will bend their toes vigorously when standing, Then this kind of baby may have high muscle tone.

Affecting the development of the child's brain, affecting the child's athletic ability, affecting the child's body metabolism, may cause the child's posture to be abnormal, and may injure the child's bones.

It will have a great impact on the child's growth, may affect the child's height development, will affect the child's bone development, and may also have some diseases.

If the child's muscle tone is high, it will have a certain impact on the child's growth, so it is very likely that this will cause the child to grow taller, and there is a certain reason for it.

Introduction; Muscle tone can not only maintain various postures of the body, but also muscle tone is also very important for exercise, if the baby's muscle tone is wrong, then the child's body functions will be affected to a certain extent, so what will be the impact of the baby's high muscle tone, we can come together to find out.

If the baby's muscle tension is high, there may be a rotation of the upper limbs back and forth, and the hands may be clenched and the head may be straightened and bent backwards, which is due to the tension of the back muscles, and some will appear in a state of pronation of the lower limbs, and there may be a state of knee inversion or valgus, and some babies will not be able to maintain an independent sitting posture, and they will fall backwards when sitting, and there is no ability to crawl and have no coordination. If it is a premature birth, you should go to the hospital in time for treatment, and if necessary, you should intervene as soon as possible.

The ** method of high muscle tone in infants is mainly massage and **training, assisted swimming**. If the baby's muscle tone is high, it will cause the hand to often clench into a fist and pull the baby's vision, and it will feel more resistant, and it will be difficult to open or move. Parents should insist on giving the baby passive massage exercises every day, and at the same time, they should also raise their chests and cross their arms for training.

Double-wheeled leg pedaling in turns, wheel-style method exercises. You can also let the baby take a bath and learn to swim will also get a certain amount of relaxation, play an auxiliary role, and at the same time to give the baby some soothing **, it is recommended to take the baby to the hospital as soon as possible for examination and cooperation**.

If the baby's muscle tension is high, it will cause muscle stiffness, make muscle growth uneven, cause child growth retardation, malnutrition, and even affect the child's intelligence, resulting in mental retardation, and at the same time, due to high muscle tension, muscle spasms may occur, which will make the child lose the ability to coordinate movements, and serious people may not be able to walk.

It can have serious effects, it may affect the bones, it may lead to motor development disorders, it may cause the head to tilt back, there may be a shape of angular arch reflexion, and the muscles are particularly hard.

It can damage the baby's brain, can damage the baby's cervical spine, may cause brain tissue damage, may have cerebral palsy, and will affect the baby's IQ.

It will make the child's growth rate very slow, and it will also make the child's physical fitness relatively low, and it is easy to make the child sick.
