What happens to a muscle that loses tone?
A loss of tone does not mean muscle wastage, which many people may think, but it can lead to muscle wastage if it is due to the muscle not being able to contract/function anymore. Muscle wastage is known as atrophy. Low tone is known as hypotonia (the opposite being hypertonia [spasticity]). A muscle with low tone is generally weak against resistance, where as a muscle with high tone has a lot of resistance against a force. Tone is set unconsciously so that we can move fluently, so unless it is loss of tone due to some kind of neurological disorder, then it just means that the muscle is not in a contracted state in any way.
