Having trouble walking or moving
Patients with Parkinson’s Disease often experience stiffness, especially in the arms and legs. Parkinson’s patients are unable to move their arms and walk as they used to because low levels of dopamine affect the muscles that coordinate movements. The pain and stiffness can affect the hips or shoulders, making it difficult to walk or move. Parkinson’s is a common disease among older adults. It can also cause problems with mobility and ability.
