Spastic paralysis of the muscles of the hand is the result of damage to the elements of the nervous system that control motor activities. The balance between the excitatory and inhibitory activity of the brain and the reflex activity of the spinal cord is disturbed. This leads to excessive muscle contraction due to small stimuli (i.e. light touching of the patient with bedding or hand). Spasticity is often a birth defect of MPD, or cerebral palsy, as well as a consequence of strokes and injuries.

Treatment is not easy. It consists mainly in reducing muscle tone. Very important, apart from pharmacology and rehabilitation, is passive treatment with the help of a plastic orthopedic splint, aimed at inhibiting further progression of the disease.
