Spacticity: If someone has an injury to the upper motor neurons such as a spinal cord injury if the neck or a stroke in the brain, the result is a generalized spasticity. The tone in their arms and legs can be dramatically increased. Oral muscle relaxants are usually tried first; if that does not work, Botox injections and back often pumps can be considerations.
