Question
My baby is now five months old and has some high muscle tone. I want to ask experts if it’s necessary to administer brain activator? Lately, the baby is not drinking as much formula as before, why is that? Can rehabilitation treatment be done for high muscle tone? Can brain activator be administered?
Answer
Rehabilitation treatment can be done for high muscle tone, and brain activators can be used as they are brain nerve protective drugs. For a five-month-old child, high muscle tone in the limbs may be a sign of mild cerebral palsy, and it is recommended to undergo a comprehensive evaluation and rehabilitation treatment. Medication treatment includes oral or injectable nerve protective drugs to alleviate nerve excitation transmission. In addition, consider activities therapy and neural electrical stimulation therapy as part of the comprehensive rehabilitation evaluation. In some cases, surgical treatment may also be an option. I hope these suggestions can help you, and wish your baby health!
