  1. babinski

    The Babinski reflex or sign is a physical response seen when the sole of the foot is stroked firmly on the outer side from the heel to the front. If the big toe extends out and the other toes fan out, this is a positive Babinski sign, which can indicate damage or alterations in the central nervous system, specifically the motor tracts of the brain or spinal cord. This reflex is normal in infants up to a certain age and tends to disappear by around 12 to 24 months.
