Clonus: A Potential Barrier in Stroke Recovery

Clonus is a set of involuntary, rhythmic muscle contractions in the muscles that point the foot down (plantarflexors). Clonus is a sign that there is damage to the brain and/or spinal cord (upper motor neuron) specifically in the nerve pathways that control movement (descending motor pathways).

Clonus can sometimes cause pain when standing and walking and in some cases lead to “learned non-use”.
