@AAABeatbox Yes, but it can be present with a neurological pathology. In other words, this sign only appears in newborns, children under 4 years and adults with neurological disease. In healthy adults it does not appear. That's why it's used as a neurological diagnostic test to discard a neurological disease in an adult patient.
It's actually a Neurological test not an Orthopedic test.
I would like to point out that it's called planter reflex and the fanning of toes is called babiniski sign
