What is the reason for the elderly to walk unsteadily and fall all the time, and what department should I see?

  What causes elderly people to walk unsteadily and fall all the time, and what kind of medicine should I see? Elderly people walking unsteadily and falling all the time are mainly due to some causes of balance disorder problems. If the elderly walk forward and cannot stop on their own, it may be Parkinson’s disease, and a visit to neurosurgery is recommended for further diagnosis; if the movement is uncoordinated and walking is awkward, it may be caused by ataxia, and a visit to neurosurgery is recommended for detailed diagnosis. If there is no strength in both lower limbs, the gait becomes smaller, walking is much slower than before, and falls frequently, it may be a precursor of normal pressure hydrocephalus, which can be diagnosed by CT examination and physical symptoms in the cerebrospinal fluid department.  Gait disturbance is a common symptom of normal pressure hydrocephalus, and the early appearance of unstable walking, falling, and stumbling can be easily misdiagnosed as other diseases. In addition, there are two other major signs of normal pressure hydrocephalus, namely cognitive impairment and urinary impairment. Cognitive impairment is also easy to understand, such as memory deterioration, poor computational skills, apathy, depression, and an overall lack of energy. Urinary disorders are commonly associated with frequent and urgent urination, and some patients may even become incontinent and embarrassed because they cannot find the toilet at any time. The above three major signs may not always appear at the same time, and most patients may have only one or two of them, while those with serious conditions may have both.  In recent years, as the number of clinical cases has increased, medical practitioners have become more and more aware of normal pressure hydrocephalus, and the level of clinical diagnosis has been improving. At the same time, technical innovations have been made to reduce the damage to patients and effectively improve their symptoms, thus greatly improving their quality of life. At present, from the treatment effect, recovery, cerebrospinal fluid specialty technology, can professionally, comprehensively and systematically solve the defects of traditional surgery in normal pressure hydrocephalus, greatly reducing the chance of blockage and infection, which is unanimously recognized and praised by patients.
