How to treat hypotonia

Patient's question:

My baby is 40 days old. He had purulent meningitis after birth. When he was discharged, the medical records showed normal muscle tone. Recently, the doctor said that the baby has low muscle tone and no response. I don't know what the reason is.

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to perform a head CT for consultation. The child's symptoms suggest that there may be suboptimal brain development. If there is indeed brain underdevelopment, it is advisable to use neurotrophic factors such as choline and ganglioside preparations early to promote brain recovery. Rehabilitation therapy is also very important. It is recommended that you go to a formal and professional hospital for some detailed examinations. It is better to take the child out more often in daily life and participate in more sports activities.
