Spasticity
Spasticity refers to a condition characterized by abnormal muscle stiffness and involuntary muscle contractions. It is often caused by damage to the brain or spinal cord, resulting in increased muscle tone and resistance to movement. Symptoms may include muscle tightness, spasms, and difficulty with coordination and movement. Treatment options may include physical therapy, medication, and in some cases, surgery.
