What's the matter with walking off track

Walking deviation may be caused by cerebral infarction, cerebellum atrophy, or damage to balance function.

1. Cerebral infarction: Cerebral infarction is a relatively common disease. When cerebral infarction occurs, it may cause obstruction of blood circulation in the brain, which will cause symptoms of ischemia and hypoxia in patients. It may cause stiffness of the limbs on one side, and symptoms of deviation when exercising or walking. A small number of patients will also have crooked mouth and paralysis of one side of the limbs. They need to go to the hospital for brain CT or MRI examination in time. If necessary, they can take oral aspirin and nimodipine. If there is a lot of necrosis in the brain, it will need to be treated with surgery in time.

2. Cerebellar atrophy: When the cerebellum atrophies, it may cause the muscles on one side to gradually atrophy, which may cause the patient to walk crookedly.

3. The balance function is damaged: When the balance function declines, such as vestibular function decline or some inner ear diseases, which lead to abnormal perception of external balance, the patient may deviate or lean when walking. It is necessary to find out the cause and treat it in time.
