Can Falling Cause Injury Leading To Difficulty In Standing?

I have had three falls since October. The first I broke the two large bones in my wrist. Second I fell into a rose bush, and the third I fell on my right side and hit my head and right breast. It was very painful for a long time. I also had mild headaches after the last fall.

Hi,

I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. In my opinion it could exaggerate the previous 2 past injuries. Especially the one with fracture of carpal bones that may show that you are liable to fractures so falls on bones or even origin of muscles especially towards you hip joint and sacram can cause some difficulty in standing.

I suggest proper imaging by PXR , CT and some investigations to diagnose the main cause. Please click THANK YOU and consider a 5 star rating with some positive feedback if the information was helpful.

Hope the above information helps you, Any further clarifications feel free to ask.

Regards,
Dr. Ahmed Aly Hassan
