Hypotonia is a medical condition characterized by decreased muscle tone, which can lead to reduced strength and coordination. Individuals with hypotonia may appear "floppy" and have difficulty with movements such as sitting, standing, or walking. This condition can be present at birth or develop later in life and may be associated with various underlying causes, including genetic disorders, neurological conditions, or muscle diseases. Diagnosis of hypotonia typically involves a physical examination and may include imaging studies or genetic testing to identify any underlying issues. Treatment often focuses on physical therapy and occupational therapy to improve muscle strength and coordination. Early intervention can significantly enhance the quality of life for those affected by hypotonia.
