What is Babinski's reflex?

Babinski's reflex occurs when the great toe flexes toward the top of the foot and the other toes fan out after the sole of the foot has been firmly stroked. This is normal in younger children, but abnormal after the age of 2.

Alternative Names:

Reflex - Babinski's; Extensor plantar reflex
