What Causes Unsteady Gait?
The exact cause of unsteadiness while walking should be detected
Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,
Good morning.
I can understand your concern.
Unsteadiness or loss of balance when standing or walking are often experienced along with vertigo and other types of dizziness. T
Its common causes include:
1. Inner ear problems.
2. Vision problems. Cataracts, glaucoma & weakening eyesight
3. Numbness in the legs and feet comes from nerve damage, a result of simple aging or diseases like diabetes. Your nerves can no longer send signals to your brain about the position of your legs and feet, which can cause unsteadiness.
4. Neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, & spinal cord disorders.
5. Joint and muscle problems like arthritis, joint pain, or muscle weakness with advancing years. These can interfere with your body’s ability to move and react quickly to changes in posture or position.
6. Medications like Anti-epileptic drugs, Sedatives and tranquilizers, Beta blockers (type of heart medicine), BP lowering medications, & Antidepressants.
These causes should be investigated and treated accordingly.
Citistar tab which contains citicoline is a Nootropic & Neurotonic drug.
It acts by increasing blood flow and oxygen consumption in the brain thereby enhances cognition and memory and facilitates learning & also improves the tone or force of the nervous system. It also prevents excessive inflammatory response in the brain by inhibiting the release of free fatty acids and decreasing bloodbrain barrier breakdown.
It is commonly prescribed to treat
1. Age-related memory problems. It seems to help memory loss in people aged 50 to 85 years.
2. Long-term blood circulation problems in the brain (cerebrovascular diseases).
Generally it is a safe medication, although less common it can cause side effects such as trouble sleeping (insomnia), headache, diarrhea, low or high BP, & nausea.
Hope the suggestions given above could be useful to you.
Best regards.
