Parkinson disease
Typically those are signs of Parkinson's disease.
The symptoms for pseudoparkinsonism are stiff and stooped posture, tremors, shuffling gait, rolling of tongue inside mouth, masklike facies, etc.
Frankenstein gait is when you walk in a way that looks very unnatural. The term comes from the Frankenstein monster in Mary Shelly's Frankenstein.
Hi there Symptoms detailed below, further details can be found by visiting www.charcotmarietooth.webs.com Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (or syndrome), also known as CMT or HMSN is a hereditary neuromuscular condition. Very early symptoms include general "clumsiness". Frequent tripping and falling can be an early sign. High arches (or very low arches) can be a symptom as can foot drop (the foot drooping due to lack of muscle tone in the feet). The high arches can lead to instability in the ankle and twisting of the ankles. An awkward walking gait can be noticed early on as the affected person lifts legs higher to compensate for the foot drop. Walking is often with a toe to heel movement rather than the usual heel to toe movement. Hammer toes (curled toes) can be a common symptom. As muscle tone is lost in the lower legs, the legs can take on the characteristic shape often described as an inverted champagne bottle. Some sensory loss and numbness is usual in both the arms and legs, but is rarely troublesome. Rarely, this numbness can be severe, and it is easy then for individuals to injure themselves without knowing it. Exceptionally cold hands and feet are also common, caused by poor circulation in the extremities. The hands and forearms tend to become affected as the disease progresses, and can lead to loss of fine motor control, dexterity and overall hand strength, making doing up buttons difficult and undoing jam-jars and bottles almost impossible. Pain is often a feature of CMT, and is usually a result of poor walking - an unbalanced foot and ankle leads to additional stress on the knees, hips, back and even shoulders and neck. More rarely, the damaged nerves themselves cause pain, known as neuropathic pain, which is much more of a problem to bring under control. It is also possible to have some tremor in both the arms and legs. Severe tremor and CMT can be known as the Roussy-Levy Syndrome. Cramps can also be an occurance. As the disease progresses, there can be increased difficulty in walking, and aids may be needed, such as orthoses (splints), walking sticks, and wheelchairs, although it is rare for someone with CMT to become a permanent wheelchair user. Many people use wheelchairs for occasional use, to relieve the pain and effort of walking. Very rarely the following symptoms can be noticed ... People with CMT can have a severe curve of the spine (scoliosis). Speech and swallowing difficulties are possible. The phrenic nerve which controls the diaphragm can also be affected in very rare cases, and this can lead to some breating difficulties, particularly when lying flat in bed at night.

the cerebellum, my friend._____________Above answer is incorrect, the cerebellum is responsible for balance, gait, coordinated movements, etc. It is the hippocampus that is responsible for memory.
Parkinson's disease or Multiple sclerosis.
Some symptoms of essential tremor include an unsteadiness and problem with gait. Essential tremor as well causes shaking that occurs then stops, and one can feel when it is happening.
A rapid, shuffling gait
Gait of the Bulldog is loose-jointed, shuffling and sidewise motion.
rigidity of the body,akinesia-inability to walk freely & tremors characterize the triad of Parkinsonism
Typically those are signs of Parkinson's disease.
sciatic nerve
It might be. Your physical therapist may be the one to ask.
Parkinson's disease is a chronic progressive nervous disease chiefly of later life marked by tremor and weakness of resting muscles and by a shuffling gait. A disorder of the brain, it can result in difficulty with walking, movement, and coordination.From answers.com: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive movement disorder marked by tremors, rigidity, slow movements (bradykinesia), and posture instability. It occurs when cells in one of the movement-control centers of the brain begin to die for unknown reasons. PD was first noted by British physician James Parkinson in the early 1800s.
Gait means the way you walk or move. Here are some sentences.Horses have four basic gaits.He moved with an odd, shuffling gait.Our project is moving forward at a steady gait.
