Neurological gait dysfunction is a common cause of falls, morbidity, and mortality in people, especially the elderly. One of the problems with this kind of dysfunction, though, is that it can be difficult to treat, but there are options available. Our professionals at Bay Area Foot and Ankle Associates can help you or a loved one suffering from neurological gait dysfunction. Some examples of neurological gait dysfunction and some commonly associated issues include ataxia, Parkinson's disease, nerve or muscle disease, inner ear dysfunction, neuropathy, gait apraxia, spasticity, and others.
