    There are many diseases that cause walking instability, and some common diseases can be mentioned as examples: 1. Patients with muscular dystrophy will walk unsteadily due to muscle atrophy. 2. Patients with cerebellar atrophy will cause ataxia and lead to unsteady walking.

    3. Patients with Parkinson's disease will walk unsteadily accompanied by tremor and muscle rigidity. 4. The patient has acute cerebrovascular disease, because of the paralysis of the limbs, and the walking will be unstable. Once the patient has unsteady walking, he should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time.

    In the anatomy of the nervous system, the vestibule, cerebellum, posterior cord of the spinal cord, basal ganglia, cerebral cortex, etc., which are closely related to walking instability.

    If an elderly patient presents with sudden onset of unsteady walking, dizziness, and limb weakness, cerebrovascular disease should be considered. Parkinson's disease should be considered if the patient develops a gradual pattern of unsteady walking, accompanied by scorching, decreased and worsening movements. In addition, if the patient gradually develops symptoms of unsteady walking, accompanied by signs of dementia, then the possibility of cerebral atrophy in senile dementia should be considered.

    Once there is a phenomenon of unsteady walking, you should actively go to the hospital for corresponding examinations, and carry out corresponding ** when the examination results are clear. And for this disease, taking certain drugs for a long time may cause *** to cause this symptom, so it is very important to check it. It is necessary to clarify what causes it, and then proceed accordingly.

    Unsteady walking, seen in sensory ataxia and cerebellar ataxia.

    1. Sensory ataxia, manifested as unstable limb movement, swaying from side to side when walking, obvious shaking, posture flexion when walking, careful examination of the ground and feet, looking for foothold and peripheral support. Excessive leg movement, heavy feet touching the ground, significant aggravation of ataxia when losing visual cues, difficulty in closing eyes, positive signs, inability to walk at night, more common in tabes dorsalis, spinocerebellar degenerative diseases, chronic ethanol poisoning, paraneoplastic syndrome, spinal cord subacute combined degeneration, spinal cord compression, polyneuropathy and multiple sclerosis, etc.;

    2. Cerebellar supply disorder, manifested as walking with the feet apart, widening the gait base, tilting to one side when standing, unsteady gait, and deviation to one side, which can be seen in hereditary cerebellar ataxia, cerebellar vascular disease and inflammation.

    Walking unsteadily, most of them have brain diseases. Because our motor center is in the brain. Including cerebellar vestibule, all disorders that affect the central motor center of the cerebellum can cause unsteady walking.

    These include both inflammatory and neoplastic. Peripheral neuropathy also needs to be ruled out. It is recommended to go to the neurology department of the hospital for professional consultation and examination.

    There are several reasons for unsteady walking: 1. It may be a symptom of osteoporosis due to the lack of calcium in the body; 2. It may be due to the lesion of the patient's lower limb nerves, such as trauma, which causes nerve damage to the lower limbs; 3. It may be due to the patient's brain disease, such as cerebellar injury or brain tumor, cerebral infarction, cerebral infarction, vestibular impaired function, etc., which will also cause unstable walking; 4. It may be due to the patient's own cerebellar dysplasia, then the patient should go to the hospital in time**, if the symptoms are severe, surgery can be performed**. In daily life, patients can take appropriate calcium supplements to help ** and alleviate the patient's calcium deficiency, and can also do appropriate exercises to relieve symptoms.

    Irregular gait, lateral tilt, wide base, difficulty walking in a straight line and turning, truncal ataxia in vermis lesions such as midline cerebellar tumors or spinocerebellar ataxia. If the patient presents with a coarse jumping gait, swaying from side to side, dumping to the sick side, and ataxia of the ipsilateral limb, it is due to cerebellar hemisphere lesions. Patients present with a staggering, wobbly, and backward-to-backward tilting that appears to be about to fall but can be corrected immediately, often in alcoholism or barbiturates.

    The patient is unable to stand with his eyes closed, crumbling, and difficult to stand with his eyes closed (+), unable to walk at night, partially compensated by vision, walking with his feet raised high, and landing on the ground again, which is common in peripheral nerves, posterior roots, posterior spinal cords, brainstem, and thalamic parietal pathway lesions.

    The causes of unsteady and swaying are complex, such as cerebral lesions, cerebellar lesions, vestibular lesions, spinal cord lesions, etc.

    There are many possibilities for unsteady and swaying walking, and the causes are complex, and are generally mainly seen in cerebral lesions, cerebellar lesions, vestibular lesions, and spinal cord lesions. Cerebrovascular diseases (such as cerebral infarction or cerebral hemorrhage) often cause limb weakness, hemiplegia and other symptoms, and people with high-risk factors for cerebrovascular disease (hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking) should be more vigilant and seek medical attention in time when such symptoms occur. Cerebellar lesions (such as cerebellar vermis tumors) cause clumsy and uncoordinated movements through proprioceptive dysfunction and ataxia, affecting posture, gait, and body balance.

    Lesions of the posterior cord of the spinal cord can cause deep sensory disturbances with a sensation of stepping on cotton when walking. Vestibular lesions such as Meniere's disease, labyrinthitis, and motion sickness can also cause unsteady walking.

    Walking instability is generally due to some central reasons, it may be because the person has a cerebral infarction or cerebral hemorrhage, the cerebellum in the brain is damaged, resulting in a decrease in balance sensation and balance ability, and unstable walking.

    Another unstable walking may be cervical spondylosis, severe cervical myelopathy will compress the spinal cord of the cervical spine, which will lead to damage to the downward conduction nerve, resulting in the feeling of stepping on cotton under the soles of the feet when walking, at this time, there will be unstable walking, stumbling, increased muscle tone in the lower limbs, scissor steps, and the feeling of always wrestling, which is particularly unstable, which is also the cause of unstable walking.

    Some people may walk unsteadily because of the strength of the muscles of the lower limbs, and some people have neuromuscular diseases caused by congenital muscle abnormalities, and the leg muscles of the lower limbs have no strength, so they always stagger, crooked, and unstable when walking. There are also people who are congenital due to congenital hip dislocation, which will lead to walking pressure and swaying from side to side, because the hip joint is in a state of dislocation, and the femoral head cannot support the body without shaking.

    Others are due to lesions in the spinal cord, some syringa, and tethered spinal cords, which cause damage to the muscles and nerves innervating the lower limbs, resulting in insufficient muscle strength and unsteady walking.

    Long-term high blood pressure will cause dizziness symptoms due to excessive pressure on the brain, and if the blood pressure rises, the normal circulation of the human body will be affected, if there is insufficient blood supply to the limbs, it will cause unstable walking, and low pressure will lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain to produce dizziness and unsteady walking. Hyperlipidemia can cause the blood to thicken, and when the blood is thickened, the local blood supply may not be timely, resulting in dizziness.

    Hello, walking unsteadily may be suffering from cerebral insufficiency.

    It is also possible to suffer from Parkinson's.

    As well as drinking, if the child walks unsteadily, it may also be due to physical uncoordination.

    1. Insufficient cerebral blood supply: Insufficient cerebral blood supply may be suffering from atherosclerosis.

    and other factors, it will cause dizziness and other phenomena, and in severe cases, there may be unsteady walking;

    2. Parkinson's: Parkinson's may be caused by factors such as age, which can lead to abnormalities in the nervous system, which can cause resting tremor, which will affect normal walking, and may also cause cognitive impairment;

    3. Drinking: If you drink a lot of alcohol, it may lead to numbness of the nerves, which will lead to balance dysfunction, so it will cause unsteady walking or falling;

    4. Physical incoordination: When children just learn to walk, their body coordination is not very good, so there will be unstable walking and falling, which is a normal phenomenon, and will soon improve with the development of the body.

    Gait instability is a gait abnormality caused by a variety of reasons, manifested as unsteady walking or inflexible movements, wide spacing between legs when walking, or unable to walk in a straight line, left and right, or short stride distance when walking, no back and forth swing of both upper limbs, slow at the beginning, and then faster and faster bending. Gait instability treatment method 1Long-term unsteady walking and inflexible walking movements; 2.

    with involuntary limb tremors or paralysis, muscle spasms, weakness or atrophy; 3.with lower extremity soreness, pain, numbness, and sensory disturbances; 4.with swelling and pain, stiffness, deformity, and limited mobility of the lower extremity joints; For reference only!

    The main causes of unsteady walking gait are:

    1. Central nervous system lesions, extravertebral lesions, and peripheral neuromuscular lesions can cause gait instability.

    2. Spinal cord, brainstem, vestibule, cerebellum and cerebral cortex lesions, so that the reflex can not be coordinated, it is easy to have unstable gait. Hemiplegia gait is more common in patients with cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage, scissor gait is more common in children with spastic cerebral palsy, Parkinson's gait is more common in patients with Parkinson's disease, and ataxic gait is more common in patients with vestibular lesions.
