Very difficult to diagnosis the cause of hypotonia. Usually genetic. Hypotonia also has a poor prognosis, ie child's outcome is poor. Oral stimulation therapy can be done before each feeds. Physiotherapy daily. Till then can give feeds by spoon if gag reflex is there otherwise no option but tube feeding.
