MS Symptom Management: Imbalance

In recent studies, it has been found that about 54% of people with MS report they had a fall in the previous two months, and 63% reported a fall within the last nine months. Falls can result in minor to significant injury, but they can also contribute to a loss of confidence, progressive limitation of activities, and social isolation. Many factors can lead to falls, including biological factors directly resulting from the MS or medications, behavioral characteristics, and environmental factors.
