None of the patients complained of pain on injection in both the groups and similarly there is no incidence of allergic rashes, hiccup,

Physical therapists may also use a pelvic wand, such as the Therawand, for women who have
hypertonus of the pelvic musculature.
Hypertonus of the hind limbs including the phalanges was present, resulting in a resting position on the pelvis with cranially extended legs and dorsal flexion of the tail.
Guild reported in the Lancet (8) the use of muscle relaxants in
hypertonus. His assessment of neuromuscular blockade was made by hand strength and the ability of the subject to squeeze and hand grip.
PNF stretching, or proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, is a method of flexibility training that can reduce
hypertonus, allowing muscles to relax and lengthen.
In impaired patients,
hypertonus and/or reflex hyper-excitability (spasticity) often disrupt the functional use of already-weakened muscles [13].
Physical fatigue might be related to muscle weakness, deconditioning, muscle
hypertonus and respiratory muscle weakness that lead to higher energy consumption during activity (38).
At neurologic examination it was noted: instability in Romberg's posture, inaccuracy at performance of locomotor tests, smoothness nasolabial fold at the left, tongue deviation to the right,

This trend was confirmed in a logistic regression analysis after adjusting for age, diabetes, smoking, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia,
