Effectiveness of botulinum toxin on dystonia

Botox injections are very effective in reducing muscle tone, but it is also important to adhere to the program with rehabilitation training. The effect of Botox is to inhibit muscle activity, block the connection between nerves and muscles, promote muscle relaxation and reduce muscle tension. For people with high muscle tone, proper injection of some botulinum toxin has a very obvious effect, but the price is higher, and can only last for about three months, and may need to be injected again in the follow-up. People with dystonia who are treated with Botox need to undergo regular and systematic rehabilitation training under the guidance of a doctor to help maintain the effect of lowering dystonia. In addition to the use of Botulinum toxin, in the process of treatment of dystonia rehabilitation training, can also be combined with hot packs, massage, physical therapy and other methods to promote the recovery of muscle tone. For details, you can consult a professional doctor’s opinion.
