In this video, we explore the common symptom of postural instability in Parkinson's Disease. Balance problems and unsteadiness while standing or walking can significantly impact the daily lives of people living with Parkinson's. Postural instability increases the risk of falls, which can cause significant issues and impact on quality of life.

Balance problems are one of the main symptoms of Parkinson’s. Poor balance makes people unsteady when standing or walking and is known as postural instability. When you have postural instability the possibility of falling from being bumped or walking on an uneven surface is significantly increased.

Signs that may indicate postural instability include stooped posture, small shuffling steps, and a tendency to lean forward when walking.
