Mobility and balance problems in Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

Multiple sclerosis can affect your balance in a number of ways both directly, as a result of MS damage, and indirectly from the impact of other MS symptoms. There are a number of MS symptoms that can worsen balance and mobility and therefore increase the risk of falling.
These include muscle stiffness (spasticity and spasms), weakness and numbness, tremor, pain, visual problems and fatigue. MS can also cause dizziness and vertigo which can make it difficult to remain upright, unsupported, even when standing still.
This video talks through some ideas around what you can do if you struggle with your mobility and/or balance.
