A member asked:
What could cause hypotonia in toddlers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many things: Hypotonia can be due to a neurologic disorder present from birth, it can be due to an acute illness, drugs and toxic exposures, etc.. The specific answer in one child will depend the circumstances and all the other details of what's going on with that child.
