What does ADHD and hypotonia mean?


i hear it a lot but i donno wat it means.

Attention deafest hyperactive disorder not sure about the other one

They are both different. I know about these because I have both ADHD and hypotonia. ADHD stands for attention diffict hyperactive disorder. I have to take medicine for my ADHD. There are many different medicines to treat ADHD, but the ones I take are Focalin XR and dexmethylphenidate. I have hypotonia since I was born. I had to take therapy for it since I was 2 months until I was 7. Hypotonia is a condition of abnormally low muscle tone (the amount of tension or resistance to movement in a muscle), often involving reduced muscle strength. Hypotonia is not a specific medical disorder, but a potential manifestation of many different diseases and disorders that affect motor nerve control by the brain or muscle strength. Recognizing hypotonia, even in early infancy, is usually relatively straightforward, but diagnosing the underlying cause can be difficult and often unsuccessful. The long-term effects of hypotonia on a child's development and later life depend primarily on the severity of the muscle weakness and the nature of the cause. Some disorders have a specific treatment but the principal treatment for most hypotonia of idiopathic or neurologic cause is physical therapy to help the person compensate for the neuromuscular disability. Now I don't have hypotonia as bad. I can do many things like a normal person without hypotonia.


:) Hope I helped!
