📎Types of Gait Disorder.
🎗️Antalgic gait a limp adopted so as to avoid pain on weight-bearing structures, characterized by a very short stance phase.

🎗️Ataxic gait an unsteady, uncoordinated walk, with a wide base and the feet thrown out, coming down first on the heel and then on the toes with a double tap.This gait is associated with cerebellar disturbances and can be seen in patients with longstanding alcohol dependency. Presentation is a wide base of support, high steps, and slapping of feet on the floor in order to gain some sensory feedback.

🎗️Equine gait a walk accomplished mainly by flexing the hip joint; seen in crossed leg palsy.

🎗️Parkinsonian Gait (seen in parkinson's disease and other neurologic conditions that affect the basal ganglia). Rigidity of joints results in reduced arm swing for balance. A stooped posture and flexed knees are a common presentation. Bradykinesia causes small steps that are shuffling in presentation. There may be occurrences of freezing or short rapid bursts of steps known as ‘festination’ and turning can be difficult.

🎗️Trendelenburg gait, the gait characteristic of paralysis of the gluteus medius muscle, marked by a listing of the trunk toward the affected side at each step.

🎗️Hemiplegic gait a gait involving flexion of the hip because of footdrop and circumduction of the leg.

🎗️Steppage gait the gait in footdrop in which the advancing leg is lifted high in order that the toes may clear the ground. It is due to paralysis of the anterior tibial and fibular muscles, and is seen in lesions of the lower motor neuron, such as multiple neuritis, lesions of the anterior motor horn cells, and lesions of the cauda equina.

🎗️Stuttering gait a walking disorder characterized by hesitancy that resembles stuttering; seen in some hysterical or schizophrenic patients as well as in patients with neurologic damage.

🎗️Tabetic gait an ataxic gait in which the feet slap the ground; in daylight the patient can avoid some unsteadiness by watching his feet

🎗️Waddling gait exaggerated alternation of lateral trunk movements with an exaggerated elevation of the hip, suggesting the gait of a duck; characteristic of muscular dystrophy.

🎗️Diplegic Gait (Spastic gait). Spasticity is normally associated with both lower limbs. Contractures of the adductor muscles can create a ‘scissor’ type gait with a narrowed base of support. Spasticity in the lower half of the legs results in plantarflexed ankles presenting in ‘tiptoe’ walking and often toe dragging. Excessive hip and knee flexion is required to overcome this.

🎗️Neuropathic Gaits. High stepping gait to gain floor clearance often due to foot drop.

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of disorders that affect a person's ability to move and maintain balance and posture. CP is the most common motor disability in childhood. Cerebral means having to do with the brain. Palsy means weakness or problems with using the muscles.

ULNAR NEUROPATHY

BACKGROUND:
Ulnar neuropathy is a medical condition in which the ulnar nerve is compressed as it travels across the elbow or the wrist. It is considered to be the second most common site of nerve entrapment in the upper extremity, the first being the wrist (carpal tunnel syndrome). There is a higher occurrence in men.

CAUSES:

Ulnar neuropathy is caused by increased pressure on the ulnar nerve as it travels across the elbow or the wrist less frequently. Compression of a peripheral nerve induces marked changes in the nerve fiber structure causing impairment and damage to the nerve. Ulnar neuropathy can be associated with many medical conditions that cause pressure on the ulnar nerve, such as arthritis, pre-diabetes (impaired glucose tolerance), diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, trauma or excessive use of the arms. Few studies also suggest that ulnar neuropathy is provoked by repetitive flexion of the elbow in industrial occupation causing damage to the ulnar nerve.

SIGNS & SYMPTOMS:

Numbness and tingling sensations in the fingers in the ulnar nerve distribution are the hallmark neuropathic and compressive symptoms of ulnar nerve entrapment. Most often, the abnormal sensations are diverse and are confined to the fourth and fifth fingers, but should not include the palm of the hand.

The numbness may be more noticeable at night, possibly related to awkward sleep position causing prolonged flexion of the elbow. If left untreated, it may progress to involve the motor fibers leading to difficulty using the fingers and weakness of hand grip as patients report trouble with opening jars, brushing the teeth, turning doorknobs, etc. Occasionally, few patient also complain of elbow pain that may radiate to the shoulder.
