So that is all! Nine months of waiting for a small miracle are over. Everything turned out to be not so scary. The pain, the maternity hospital, the invasion of numerous friends after discharge, and endless inquiries about their well-being have been experienced. Finally, you and the baby were left alone. You can examine the baby yourself without haste (usually, immediately after giving birth, young mothers start counting their fingers in a panic and check if all parts of the newborn's body are in place), understand who the baby looks like, and just quietly rejoice in motherhood.

Enjoy the moment. Because then you will not have a free minute. Bathing, feeding, changing clothes, walking, vaccinations will cover you with your head like a snowball and you can recover ... no, not at your child's graduation party, but at least during the period when you send your baby to kindergarten. But until that time, there is still much to be done. Namely - to raise a baby and make sure that the level of his development corresponds to his age. Of course, many mothers (almost all) are so blinded by the love for the child that they consider him the best. We don't argue. Undoubtedly, your baby is a real miracle. However, even the most wonderful kids need to be controlled. That is why we have prepared a small calendar of the child's development by months, which will once again make sure that your child is no different from his peers (or maybe even ahead of them in development).

Child development calendar by months

Before describing the future achievements of your child by months, we want to warn you that each person is different. Therefore, do not panic if your child is slightly behind schedule and speaks fewer words than expected.

0 -1 month: sleep after birth

From the outside, it may seem that the life of a nursing baby is only about getting a good night's sleep. This is partly true, since the sleep of a newborn up to one month lasts up to 22-23 hours a day. That is, your baby wakes up after birth only to eat and inform the happy parents that it is time to change the diaper. By the end of the first month, the child begins to be more interested in the world around him, and the period of wakefulness increases to 6 hours a day.

As for other achievements, they are still quite modest. The baby begins to reach for his chest, recognizes his mother by smell and voice, turns his head in the direction of loud sounds. But what makes parents especially happy is the first smile of a nursing baby. Of course she is still completely unconscious, but try to explain this to happy mom and dad who catch every change in their child's behavior.

1-2 months: here she is, mom

In the second month of his life, the baby begins to recognize adults and smile at them quite consciously. He reacts to the appearance of a person in the room with noticeable animation, distinguishes voices. At the same time, the child learns: as soon as he cries, his parents will pick him up or give him a tasty pacifier. Do not hesitate, the child uses all this knowledge for its intended purpose. If the parents did not understand the hint from the first time, the child will repeat the demand louder, and then even the neighbors will hear him. What do you want? The kid does not know how to speak yet.

But he already succeeds, turning over on his stomach, to keep his head at an angle of 45 degrees. Be sure to check this baby's ability. If a 2-month-old baby is still lying prone on his stomach, it is worth showing him to a pediatric therapist and possibly taking a course of special massages to correct the situation. The next achievement is shown by the baby sitting in the mother's arms. He not only tries to grab her by the finger or beg for extraordinary breastfeeding, but also tries to keep his head straight. By the way, be sure to hold the baby's neck, despite the fact that, as it seems to you, he is already quite confidently holding his head. The fact is that the bones of a newborn are still quite fragile, and the spine is not able to withstand even such a small weight. But what the child, undoubtedly, will touch those around him, is his signature gurgle. This manner of communication occurs in a baby at the age of 1 to 2 months. In addition, the baby actively clenches its palms into fists and tries hard to chew on its own finger.

2-3 months: laughter, and only

In the period up to 3 months, the child can roll over from his back to his side, and while lying on his stomach, he rises on his elbows, holding his weight for about 10 seconds. The kid is so interested in everything that he not only raises his head, but also actively turns it from side to side, trying to consider the world around him. At the same time, in less than 3 months, the child begins to realize his power over his parents, and anxious crying turns into a completely conscious capricious whimpering.

At this time, you can already hang a bunch of rattles over the crib. The kid is already pulling his hands to them with might and main. However, be careful, as once caught a toy, the child will certainly want to taste it. Of course, it is not worth taking a rattle away from a child, but it is quite necessary to take the choice of toys more seriously (especially considering the "conscientiousness" of modern manufacturers and the quality of the dye that is added to inexpensive plastic). But what else the baby discovers is its own arms and legs. For hours, the baby can look at the find and, out of habit, taste it. In addition, the little miracle laughs loudly, walks and actively asks for hands.

3-4 months: choosing favorites

Here it is, mom's finest hour. In three months, the child realized that a fragile woman with an affectionate voice not only takes him in her arms more often than anyone, but also feeds him on demand, therefore, at the age of 4 months, the baby clearly begins to distinguish his mother from everyone around him. The toddler pronounces the first syllables, smiles in response to the smile of others and begins to play more consciously with the proposed toys. He singles out his favorite rattles for himself, takes them in his hands, shifts them from side to side.

In addition, the child raises his head 90 degrees while lying on his stomach. Freely turns from side to side, moves around the bed and knows how to express his mood. The kid laughs if someone tickles him, screams loudly with delight, calms down to the sound of music (of course, if it's not hard rock) and is actively interested in the reflection in the mirror.

4-5 months: where do you take my toys?

The kid grows up. He holds his head firmly when he sits, easily holds a bottle of water, plays with the proposed toys and protests if someone tries to take away his rattle. The child distinguishes well between strangers and unfamiliar surroundings. By the way, everything else scares him, so you should not invite many strangers into the house or constantly take your baby with you. A child of 4-5 months willingly plays with his parents in the ageless fun "cuckoo", tries to repeat the nursery rhymes after his mother and plays while eating. Lying, the baby is trying to get up, stretching on his arms, and, having dropped the object, he will definitely look where it has rolled.

5-6 months: crawl, baby, crawl

An active life begins not only for the child, but also for the parents. A six-month-old child is already trying to sit with might and main, crawling on all fours, if he does not reach the toy next to him and amusingly rolls from back to side. The kid becomes a gourmet, highlighting his favorite dishes. At lunch, he tries to hold a cup by the handle, plays with his food and responds to his own name. In addition, the child is happy to transfer objects from one box to another, can compare two toys for hours and sing along with the melody he heard in his own way. If a baby is called familiar objects, he will surely find them in the room with his eyes and even express his attitude towards them with understandable sounds.

6-7 months: improving your crawling skills

If a month ago your baby was crawling a little uncertainly, now he is a real ace in overcoming the distance on all fours. The child sways from side to side, crawls backwards and even develops an unheard-of speed in order to catch some toy before adults or catch up with a fleeing cat. If the child has to sit, then this is already a proud pose with a straight back (sometimes, in order not to fall, the kids support the body weight with their hands). However, pediatricians still advise not to plant a six-month-old baby often, giving him a little time to get stronger.

What a child of this age undoubtedly likes is the mirror. More precisely - the reflection in it. The kid strokes the reflection with his hands, gently walks and in every possible way expresses his approval of what he saw. To mom's strict "no" (for example, to an attempt by a tomboy to rip off a pet's tail), the child responds, though not by obedience, but by full understanding of what is happening. He loves to beat objects against each other, sing songs of his own composition and study the body with his hands (and sometimes taste).

7-8 months: the first word

It is during this period that parents most often hear the first word of the baby. The child begins to become attached to his family and a little wary of strangers (sometimes this is expressed by a cry of protest when a stranger tries to pick him up). But the surrounding world does not frighten the baby at all. He continues to be actively interested in the contents of the apartment, still moving on all fours, but already in the category of "extra-class master". The child is not yet trying to walk, but already stands without support for several seconds. And if you offer him something to lean on, then the baby can stand long enough and will even try to play with one hand. The reflection in the mirror fascinates the tomboy more and more. Ardent love for oneself develops into affectionate conversations and kisses of the mirror surface. The kid identifies the words "mom" and "dad" with people who proudly bear this title, and begins to rejoice at their arrival.

8-9 months: buying books

If your child is more than 8 months old, it's time to buy the first children's books with thick pages. It is now that the child will not only appreciate them at their true worth, but will also be able to scroll on their own. Of course, it's still too early to learn letters, but if you read to your baby as much as possible, this will have a beneficial effect on the development of your child. At this age, the child loves to clap his hands, tear paper. He can play with two toys at the same time and is well aware of which object is large and which is small.

Such children sit down on their own, love to jump and walk, holding on to their mother's hands, turn around perfectly during their trademark crawling on all fours. However, don't expect your little one to absorb only good habits. Eight-month-old babies very often stick their fingers wherever they go (we hope you put protection on the sockets?) And begin to quarrel if something went wrong with their scenario. But such kids perfectly show body parts, they can find a toy that they have “hidden” in front of their eyes and will gladly follow simple instructions (especially if they receive sincere praise for it).

9-10 months: top-top, stomping baby

At more than 9 months, the baby begins to walk, holding on to his mother with both hands. Apparently, this gives the child enthusiasm, because simultaneously with the ability to walk, the little tomboy develops a love of dancing and imitation. Do not feed the kid with bread, let him show some animal or even copy someone from the family. He loves to play with water and climb the numerous boxes that the tired mother forgot to close. But what a 9 month old baby doesn't want is sleep. Apparently, the young researcher does not want to spend a second of precious time on sleep, realizing how much more interesting things are around.

Children's fingers also develop. Now the child can carry away 2 objects at once in one palm. By the way, at this time it is already becoming clear who your baby is - right-handed or left-handed. In order to find out, put some toy in front of the baby (in the middle) and see which hand he grabs it with.

10-11 months: development continues

The kid is already walking on his own, holding onto the furniture. He gets up and sits down from any position, can pick up a small object from the floor, grabbing it with his thumb and forefinger. He perfectly understands the word "no" (but this does not mean that the baby will always obey you) and tries to express his desires not by crying, but by logical explanations. To do this, the corporate word "give" appears in the lexicon and a couple of gestures by which the mother must understand what exactly her child needs. The kid drinks tea from a cup on his own (but still it is better to use a sippy cup). Of the games during this period, kids are very fond of rolling the ball on the floor (especially if one of the adults is playing with them), as well as playing “okay”. Well, children's books, of course, should not be put aside. Moreover, children are already beginning to recognize this or that fairy tale and ask them to read it.

11-12 months: progress is evident

In a year, the baby already sits on his own, walks, with pleasure builds pyramids and other complex structures from cubes. The child shows independence and can refuse some food, or, conversely, ask to feed him. And he no longer eats ordinary baby cereals, but perfectly bites off solid food (this process must be carefully monitored so that the baby does not choke). The child freely recognizes familiar adults, calls them by name. In the children's vocabulary there are already about 15 words (albeit fuzzy), with which he can quite easily explain with his parents. By the way, you won't be able to go to work with impunity. If the child notices your departure, he will certainly start crying, so be smart and do not traumatize the child's psyche.

The list is endless. However, you must understand that the more you pay attention to your child, the better he will develop. Therefore, if the son of a friend is already reading poetry, and your own cannot ask for bread and butter, then the genes are not to blame for this, but you yourself. Replace daily sittings at the computer with games with your child, and he will certainly delight you with a new word, achievement or just a joyful smile.

Prolonged rhythmic swaying, which is observed in children and adults in a dream or in the first minutes after waking up, are called yaktats. This condition often indicates the immaturity of the nervous system and requires monitoring and correction.

Attentive parents will definitely notice any changes in their child's behavior. If these changes cause anxiety and concern, the baby should be shown to the doctor.

Yakation refers to states that indicate the presence of psychological discomfort in the child's life, the immaturity of the nervous system, or the initial stage of a disorder of consciousness.

What is yakation in children, orphans and adults: description, reasons, video

The strange rhythmic swaying that is produced by the head or the whole body is called yaktatsiya. Yakation is usually observed in young children before bedtime, during sleep, or immediately after waking up. Attempts by outsiders to interfere with the swing, interrupting these movements, ends in hysteria. The child receives satisfaction from his activity and reacts with dissatisfaction to interference in his "ritual".

Video: Yakation in a child in a dream

Each childhood is characterized by special manifestations of yakation. It can be in the form of repeated rhythmic pumping in babies, in children over six months - in the form of swinging left and right or back and forth. In order not to lose balance, while swinging, children often hold on to the playpen or wall with their handles.

The varieties of yakation include frequent rhythmic head twisting and the manifestation of emotions during seizures.

When rocking back and forth on all fours, the situation can be complicated by hitting the head against the wall.

Reasons for yakation in children:

lack of rhythmic stimulation
limiting physical activity
separation from mom
physical or mental stress
family conflicts
muscle tension
training of the vestibular apparatus
pressure
hypoxia during childbirth

Sometimes yakation in a child occurs when he has new skills and opportunities. The first inept steps, attempts to run, or an erupted tooth can cause rocking.

The child often sways back and forth while sitting: what is this, is this a disease?

Rhythmic rocking of the body or head is called yaktatsiya. Most babies between 5 and 10 months old experience this phenomenon. Boys are more prone to yakation than girls.

It can suddenly stop forever without outside interference, but sometimes it continues until the onset of school age.

How do parents feel about yakation in a child?

It is very difficult and scary to observe how a child, as if involved in some kind of invisible ritual, now and then sways from side to side or enthusiastically shakes his head. But parents should not panic.

After talking with specialists, most moms and dads leave their fears and stock up on patience, because often yakation is nothing more than a manifestation of the immaturity of the nervous system. By the age of 7 - 7.5 years, the condition is normalized, but until this has happened, the rocking and winding help the neural connections to form as soon as possible.

Doctors do not recommend stopping the child while swinging.

Where and how to treat yakation in children and adolescents?

Yakation in children can be a temporary phenomenon and go away on their own, however, if the rocking is often repeated, parents should take all possible measures to stop the obsessive state.

For this you need:

try to improve relations with household members, avoid conflicts in the presence of a child
soften the approach, avoid harsh handling
get emotionally close to the child
spend enough time outdoors with your child, suggest creative activities

If the efforts of the parents are unsuccessful, it is necessary to consult a neurologist or psychotherapist. The specialist will study the problem and suggest ways to solve it. Play and rational therapy, activities aimed at normalizing family relationships and educational approaches, hypnosis can help.

Polysomnography - a method of examination during yakation

One of the popular effective methods of examination is polysomnography, which is performed at night, while the patient is sleeping. Based on its results, one can judge the reason for yakation in a child or an adult.

It is possible to accelerate the maturation of the nervous system. For this, the child is prescribed Lecithin and enhanced nutrition. Meat, fatty broths, butter, fish should become indispensable foods in a child's diet.

Step to victory over yakation - establishing emotional contact with the child

Dr. Komarovsky believes that the solution of such neurological problems in a child as yakation does not at all mean that the baby needs to be taken to doctors and treated with medications. Serious neurological disorders in a child that require medical attention manifest themselves in a completely different way and are noticeable at a very early age.

Parents who have noticed the child's tendency to sway, first of all, should postpone all their affairs and try to devote as much time as possible to the baby. Joint games, sleeping next to mom, calm affectionate appeal to the child can normalize his condition in the shortest possible time.

Yakation in children, orphans: reasons, Komarovsky

In most cases, yakation is observed in children deprived of parental care, love and affection. For adoptive parents, such behavior of a daughter or son is a surprise, and becomes the reason for the next examination by doctors.

In such cases, pediatricians prescribe glycine and vitamin D, neurologists talk about ICP, the immaturity of the nervous system, the child's attempts to compensate for the impulses missing in the central nervous system with repetitive monotonous movements.

Yakation in a child can express his protest against the atmosphere in the family. A normal emotional background is a prerequisite for getting rid of yakation.

During systemic vertigo, it seems to a person that the surrounding objects are moving in space, and with non-systemic vertigo, “the earth is leaving from under his feet,” he is thrown from side to side. Other types of vertigo: when it seems to a person that he is falling down or rising up, lateropulsion - insurmountable movements to the side, drowsiness.

Causes of occurrence

For some people, dizziness is accompanied by nausea and vomiting. In severe cases, there is even a feeling of fear, profuse sweating, fainting and collapse. However, when you feel dizzy, it can also be a symptom of diseases of the ear, eye, brain, or nervous system.

Meniere's disease

If sometimes a person has attacks of systemic dizziness (sensation of rotation of surrounding objects), during which there is noise in the ears, nausea, hearing loss, then this may be a manifestation of Meniere's disease.

Acute vestibular neuritis

This relatively rare disease manifests itself as a result of inflammation of the vestibular cochlear nerve, characterized by a sudden onset, severe dizziness, and constant vomiting. These symptoms usually disappear within 2-3 days. Final recovery occurs in 2-3 weeks.

Orthostatic dizziness

It is characterized by the fact that a seated or lying person, with a sharp change in the position of the body, a veil appears before the eyes - this is due to the sudden redistribution of blood in his body. However, due to an involuntary reflex, such a redistribution is very soon compensated.

Heart rhythm disorders and other heart diseases

Attacks of dizziness, sometimes accompanied by fainting, can occur with various heart diseases that affect the activity of the nervous system.

The head can begin to spin with both rapid and slow heart rate. Atrial flutter due to disorganization of the rhythmic activity of the heart or myocarditis, damage to the cardiac conduction system, sharp fluctuations in blood pressure (high, and especially low pressure) - all this also leads to the fact that the head begins to spin.

Polycythemia

With polycythemia, the content of red blood cells in the blood rises. Symptoms of this disease are headache, hot flashes, and cherry red facial coloration.

What to do if you feel dizzy?

If you are sick and do not get out of bed for a long time, then try not to make sudden movements, not to change your body position. With prolonged and frequent dizziness, and especially if other symptoms of the disease appear along with it, you should consult a doctor.

Throws aside the reasons

Cured, discharged, all chorus.

What examinations should be prescribed?

She is registered with a neurologist, she is coming in a couple of days.

She will only go to the doctor.

Do you really really think that she never went to the doctors?

There is no need to invent anything for me and look for something between the lines.

Sits at home crying that he will soon die.

And I am such a bad daughter, I make her go to the doctor to the clinic.

I’ll have to sit next to her, cry like a good daughter, someone else.

Yes, I also thought about massage.

She was at the therapist on Friday, her blood pressure is normal.

She has no temperature.

She herself scolds the doctor - her doctor is both stupid and young, and speaks very quietly, and the queue at the doctor is frantic, only grandmothers.

I reassure her by the fact that the doctor prescribed the drugs everything in the case, which means that she is not such a fool

She was only from the hospital - 2 fresh blood tests - biochemistry, 2 fresh urine tests, she also donated blood for sugar, monitored throughout the day - everything was normal.

Gastroscopy was done - nothing terrible, even a colonoscopy was done - everything is ok.

The ECG was done last month, everything was in accordance with age-related changes, there is no heart diagnosis.

Ultrasound of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, pancreas, kidneys - fresh ultrasound from the hospital. Everything is also pretty decent.

There can be no cure without a diagnosis.

The diagnosis was not announced to her, her mother did not read her map later.

Or do you suggest going straight to the head physician of the polyclinic?

Dragging a 67-year-old man - I'm not a monster. Maybe it is customary in your family, but not in ours.

She says that 1000 rubles - again, nafig need to spend money, she has already gone when I remind her that she did not like the doctor, says that she is already drinking medicine and will not go.

When I say that I will come and pay a visit to the 2nd doctor, I say that it is not necessary, because money IS.

All or one way or no way.

Persuasion does not help, swearing is useless - only one nerve, and the fact that she went to the DOCTORS at all is my victory.

Before that, she was treated, such as brewed chamomile / St. John's wort / calendula / rose hips and so on, and I'm fine, I've already recovered.

Staggers when walking: what is the reason and how to get rid of the disease

If you stagger (sway) when walking, the feeling of a "floating" environment covers you, then most often the root of the disease lies in vegetative-vascular dysfunction (VVD), pathological processes in the spinal column, pressure surges, head injuries, multiple sclerosis, stroke.

Unsteadiness of gait with vascular and autonomic disorders

Often, the fragility of gait is directly related to vascular headaches, which manifest themselves against the background of cerebral blood flow disorders. Vascular cephalalgia is characterized by:

localization in the back of the head;
exhausting, strong and throbbing pain radiating in the temples;
a feeling of unreality, a feeling that the world “revolves” and “revolves” around;
visual abnormalities, including flickering of the "grid" in front of the eyes.

Patients complain of a fear of open spaces, an irresistible desire to be near any support. Many people note that before going outside they feel a heaviness in the head, muscle tension. Movements become clumsy and uncoordinated. For no apparent reason, the head aches and dizzy, weakness collapses.

Factors Affecting Instability

Doctors note that uncertainty and swaying while walking with VSD are associated with the following reasons:

First, with impaired consciousness. The main symptoms: vision becomes cloudy, the surrounding "picture" loses its clear outlines and becomes foggy, dizzy, suffocating, often a person is in a fainting state.
Secondly, with constant thoughts of malaise. They form an imbalance in the body. Patients often notice that when they forget about the pathology and the head is "light", the instability disappears.
Thirdly, with tightness and stiffness of muscle fibers. Why are the muscles pinched? Chronic stressful conditions, fears, depression make them so. The muscle mass of the neck and back is tense, the limbs tremble, the head is spinning, coordination is lost.

How to improve the condition?

It is important to "get to the bottom" of the causes of blood pressure surges, panic attacks, unfounded fears, etc. After all, the main factors of instability in VSD, head fog and headache, vertigo are hidden in the lability of the nervous system, constant stress, anxiety and depression.

It is necessary to follow the prescriptions of not only therapists and neurologists, but also address the problem to psychotherapists or psychiatrists. You will have complete knowledge of the causes of malfunction in the body, know what to do to eliminate the "provocateurs" of the disease. Note that almost 10% of gait imbalance and head ailments in VSD are associated with thyroid dysfunction, cardiac arrhythmia.

Imbalance in cervical osteochondrosis

If the gait becomes stumbling, with "drunken" elements and at the same time the head is spinning and noisy, then the pathology may be prompted by collar (cervical) osteochondrosis. Instability, loss of balance and swaying are accompanied by:

a feeling of cotton plugs in the ears;
aching and lingering cephalalgia, which sharply increases with head movements;
soreness in the neck and face;
increased heart rate;
profuse sweating;
redness or pallor of the epithelium.

Effective ways to improve your condition

It is important to understand that it is impossible to return a confident gait without treatment of cervical osteochondrosis, which provokes it. Physicians can prescribe:

Reception of pharmacological agents that dilate and tonic blood vessels, enhancing the nutrition of the brain.
To do stretching and fixation of the collar, regularly carry out water procedures, perform a complex (individually selected!) Of physiotherapy exercises.
Eat a diet rich in vitamins B, C, etc.

A visit to the doctors cannot be postponed if the lethargy of the legs is rapidly progressing. It is necessary to conduct a full and comprehensive examination so as not to ignore the anomalies that require urgent surgical intervention. For example, a hernia (prolapse) of the intervertebral disc, pinching the nerve tissue, can dramatically worsen the condition.

Recipes from the folk treasury will help

The combination of chemicals with simple folk recipes will help to quickly overcome cervical osteochondrosis, restore an easy and confident gait:

Make potato-honey compresses regularly. Mix fresh potatoes with honey, apply to painful areas of the neck.
Prepare a composition of aloe juice, vodka, honey and radish - mix 2 tbsp. spoons of each ingredient. Drink once a day before eating.
Pour the chopped celery root (3 g) with boiling water (1 l), leave for 8 hours, strain. Drink 1 dessert spoon three times a day on an empty stomach.

Other causes of instability

It should be borne in mind that lethargy in the legs, imbalance of movement when walking, vertigo, and foggy in the head can occur due to other factors, including:

With sharp jumps in blood pressure, the brain receives less nutrients.
With the abuse of drugs (especially sedatives), alcohol.
After a stroke. Disturbed (hemiplegic) gait is a residual phenomenon of the disease.
With bilateral lesions of the frontal lobe, cerebellar hemispheres, medial cerebellar zone.

Also, don't forget to thank the doctors.

I would like to inform you about additional studies of my disease, I am beginning to better and better understand the symptoms and the disease itself. Not long ago, a neurologist had a woman already at an age that seemed to have a lot of experience with a higher education, but when I told her about BPPV she asked me again what was it ?! I explained what kind of disease it is, its symptoms, I know for sure that I do not have a vertebral artery syndrome, because I understand perfectly well that when a spasm of this artery occurs, dizziness occurs; headache, in the occiput, tinnitus, and so on, I have This is not, for which there is an objective confirmation of ultrasound of the vessels of the neck and the head for which I was prescribed a direction, I attach the conclusion below, and also wrote out a direction for an MRI of the cervical spine, and according to the conclusion of the data, studies, I was diagnosed with a syndrome of the vertebral vertebral artery, having doubted this diagnosis, I turned to another neuropathologist, the man turned out to be a professional in his field, after listening to my complaints, conducting a total Rum Berg test, a pollen-bearing test, got acquainted with the studies that I went through, and diagnosed vistibulopathy, this diagnosis is more suitable, but still I want to find the true the cause of dizziness, since dizziness is a symptom and not a disease, I am more inclined to ailing the labyrinth of the inner ear, as I noticed when I enter a dark room at night, my head starts to feel a little stormy, not dizzy, but just shakes and starts to lose balance a little, on the light and balance comes back to normal, I was given an exercise in vestibular gymnastics, so I’ll start doing it, and drink Betaver, I do not know how much it will help, but I will try. I would like to ask you what kind of disease do you think I have? Since my head does not hurt, now I do not feel dizzy but shakes a little in the dark, this is probably something else with the visual analyzer, apparently there is a mismatch with the somatosensory system, and I still have an increased nervous state. And I also wanted to say that as a child I was rocked very badly in the car on the bus, it became very bad, I was born at 7 months with fetal hypoxia, doctors diagnosed encephalopathy and cranial pressure.

P. S. Communicating with you, I am sure that you are a good doctor, and I understand that everything is not free, for your help I would also like to pay for your correspondence consultation, how much will it cost? Thanks.

Unfortunately, many neurologists do not know BPPV and other types of peripheral vestibulopathies, as a rule, vertebro-basilar insufficiency is usually diagnosed as standard and without much disassembly. But, also, most ENT doctors do not know such a diagnosis and problems with the labyrinth, the presence of a perilymphatic fistula, the onset of Meniere's disease, etc. are not able to identify and all the troubles are attributed to the long-suffering osteochondrosis and sent back to the neurologist. Therefore, if you find it, it is better to consult an otoneurologist.

I'm talking about VSD! shakes from side to side when walking.

I am very afraid .. it would seem funny, but I am afraid of death in one word, because I have two beautiful girls, everything is fine and my husband is wonderful. who knows, and who had the same pitching from side to side as a drunk, answer me, did it work for you?

I drink now atheroclephitis to clean the vessels, the doctor advised, but it's so scary that all these sensations will not pass. and I am very afraid to stay at home alone. I am very afraid of fainting because I have never lost consciousness. support girls. do I really have to live with such rolling from side to side. it's unbearable. I cured neurasthenia. now the attacks of suicide, shaking, goosebumps just drive you crazy. I'm scared.

Thank you very much in advance. and with all this, I cannot do anything significant. answer those who had it? maybe even after pregnancy, it will pass. it was worse during pregnancy.

THROWS FROM SIDE TO SIDE

God bless you never to have a reason to see a doctor! And if you have to, then do not delay.

CREATE A NEW MESSAGE.

How dangerous is all this, how does it manifest itself for me, what is the forecast and is there an opportunity to improve the situation?

Stenoses are hemodynamically insignificant, do not require surgical correction

To prevent their progression, it is necessary to control the lipid profile, if necessary, correct the level of cholesterol in the blood by taking lipostabilizing agents, constant intake of antiplatelet agents - should improve your condition

This does not threaten you with anything, and does not play any fatal role. This is just an anatomical feature in the structure and organization of the left ICA and VPA, which your body has been compensating for a long time on its own.

This is not "vd". There is no such disease! Most often, this mask hides a neurotic disorder - neurosis! This problem must be dealt with under the supervision and guidance of a psychotherapist with the obligatory use of psychotherapy as the main method. Medicines, if used, play an auxiliary role. Be guided by this when choosing a specialist. I recommend that you also look at this information. It will help you understand the essence of your problem: PANIC ATTACKS

In fact, the peculiarity of neurotic disorders lies in the fact that their external (visible) manifestations can resemble signs of almost any disease. Neurosis is a neuropsychiatric disorder that is caused primarily with traumatic circumstances. Very often, with neurosis, there are so-called. - autonomic disorders. They are called differently: vegetative-vascular dystonia or VVD, neurocirculatory dystonia (NCD), somatoform autonomic dysfunction (SVD), vegetation, angioneurosis, heart neurosis (cardio-neurosis or cardiophobia), anxiety-neurotic syndrome, etc. Vegetative disorders in neuroses can be of two types.

In the first type, there may be the following symptoms: increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, pallor and dryness of the skin, decreased salivation and dry mouth, "goose bumps", a tendency to increase body temperature, chilliness of the limbs, etc. For the second type, typical slowing heart rate, lowering blood pressure, increased salivation, increased intestinal motility, redness of the skin.

The external manifestations of neurosis, in practice, can resemble signs of various diseases, but at the same time, neurosis is not accompanied by damage to the internal organs of a person. It can last for many years, but it is always a reversible disorder.

In our psychotherapeutic practice, it refers to borderline states, and never leads to the development of mental disorders. This is a reversible reaction of the individual to some kind of traumatic situation.

Treatment of neuroses should be psychotherapeutic and complex. Medication for neuroses is usually of secondary importance.

Psychotherapy is a special type of treatment in which assistance is provided by psychological means, in solving problems and difficulties of a psychological nature.

Psychotherapy does not set itself the goal of eliminating a serious mental illness, but rather a practical help in solving life problems. Without such help, over time, the neurotic disorder can become chronic.

The main task of psychotherapy is to restore mental health.

The goal of psychotherapeutic work is to help a person understand the meaning of what determines his behavior, feelings, thoughts and try to change ineffective reactions using psychological means. Currently, the newest, unique and very powerful psychological techniques, existential, narrative, cognitive-behavioral therapy, etc. are successfully applied. The most necessary thing in the treatment of neurosis is the desire of the person himself - to cope with his problems.

The task of the doctor-psychotherapist, as efficiently and unobtrusively as possible, is to help a person move along the path of overcoming a neurotic disorder, in the right and right direction!

Reasons for staggering when walking

A symptom of many diseases is staggering when walking. In the presence of such a symptom, it is necessary to undergo a consultation examination of specialists as soon as possible. Only a qualified doctor will help determine the source of the problems that caused staggering when walking, the causes of the condition that has arisen and will prescribe the necessary examinations and treatment.

Etiology of wobbly gait

The answer to the question, what is the cause of staggering when walking, refers to the anatomical features of the structure and work of the musculoskeletal system.

The cerebellum is responsible for the coordination of movements, the vestibular apparatus and vision help to orientate in the surrounding space, the accuracy and confidence of movements is ensured by a strong bone structure, healthy joints and muscles.

The spine has a system of spinal nerves, half of which are responsible for the functioning of tactile sensations of the skin, the second half of the nerves forms plexuses from nerve fibers that go to the muscle tissue, they are responsible for the functioning of the muscles that provide movement in the musculoskeletal system.

The norm of motor activity when walking is due to the unimpeded transmission of nerve signals along the pyramidal structure, consisting of different levels of the central nervous system.

The plexus of nerves facilitates the passage of a nerve impulse that signals muscle tissue.

As a result of the occurrence of abnormal changes that impede the transmission of impulse, staggering occurs when moving.

The symptomatic picture characterizing the change in gait completely depends on the part of the spinal column in which the disorder in the transmission of impulse signals by nerve cells occurred. Thus, a wobbly gait, accompanied by symptoms:

Pain in the head, dizziness, impaired blood flow to the brain is a pathology in the cervical spine;
Pain in the heart, signs of a pre-infarction state, symptoms of angina pectoris are abnormalities of the thoracic region;
A feeling of weakness, instability, tingling in the lower extremities is an inferiority of the work of the plexus of the nerve fibers of the lumbar and sacral spine.

Also, the presence of pathologies causes pain that interferes with the normal movement of the lower extremities.

Characteristic features of a wobbly gait

Staggering while walking has certain features that indicate the onset or progress of a disease.

These signs include:

Impaired coordination of movements for an unknown reason;
Frequent stumbling;
A series of frequent falls with weakness in the legs;
Unnaturally sweeping gait;
Difficulty climbing up flights of stairs;
Difficulty moving the legs after prolonged rest;
Falling on the back when lifting the body from a sitting position;
When walking, the effect of "rolling" on one side of the body is manifested;
Heel-supported stepping movement.

Characteristics of the symptom

The unsteadiness of movements in appearance can be systemic, that is, staggering is an expression of a certain anomaly of the vestibular system of the body; and non-systemic, that is, it is the result of an ongoing chronic disease.

A huge number of sources that cause a change in gait are due to a fairly large list of diseases that have such a symptom. As a result, such pathological changes in walking can be combined into groups for reasons of occurrence.

The first group is represented by diseases that are caused by painful conditions and trauma to the musculoskeletal system, pathological disorders in the bone structure, in joints, in muscle tissue, in the soft tissue blood supply system.

The second group is diseases of the areas of the brain that are responsible for the functioning of the musculoskeletal system and control coordination in the movements of the lower extremities.

The third group of reasons is emotional mental disorders.

First group

Staggering when walking occurs in the presence of diseases of the movement apparatus:

Osteochondrosis - dystrophic lesions of the intervertebral discs;
Injury to the spinal column;
Head injuries of varying severity;
Atrophic processes in muscle tissue;
Arthritis - painful joint damage;
Diseases of the cartilage tissue;
Diseases of the bone structure;
Deformation of the foot;
Contusions of the muscle tissue of the lower extremities;
Damage to the legs of a different nature.

All painful conditions related to the first group are associated with impaired blood supply, insufficient supply of nutrients and oxygen to muscle tissue with its subsequent depletion, with trauma of a different nature.

Second group

The second group is represented by diseases and pathological changes in the brain and spinal cord, which, as they progress, cause abnormal weakness in the lower extremities.

Staggering while walking is a sign of a serious illness:

Oncological processes of the brain;
Atherosclerotic disease;
Functional disorders of the central nervous system;
Hemorrhagic stroke;
Purulent inflammation of the brain tissue;
Neurodegenerative processes of the nervous system with impaired coordination function;
Progressive neurodegenerative disease in combination with mental disorders and choreic hyperkinesis;
Anatomical discrepancy in the structure and location of the cerebellar region of the brain;
Central nervous system tuberculosis;
Autoimmune disseminated encephalomyelitis;
Inflammatory processes in the inner ear;
Neuronitis of the vestibular type;
Vegeto-vascular dystonia;
Meningitis inflammation of the brain tissue;
Polyneuropathy caused by taking neurotoxic drugs;
Disease of the central nervous system caused by treponema pallidum.

Third group

Staggering while walking can be caused by mental disorders of various etiologies:

Depressive states;
Severe stress;
Neuroses;
Violation of the perception of the reality of the surrounding world;
Unreasonable anxiety and fears.

Diagnostics

During a neurological examination, differential diagnostics are carried out, which will help the doctor establish the degree of functioning of the cerebellum and vestibular apparatus. To determine the characteristics of movements, diagnostic methods are used:

Change in gait with closed and open eyes;
Change of step when moving face or back forward;
Movement sideways to the right and left in a straight line;
Moving around the chair;
Walking on heels, then on toes;
Slow or fast rhythm steps;
Making turns while driving;
Climbing the stairs.

It is also carried out:

An appointment with an ophthalmologist, otolaryngologist, endocrinologist to make the correct diagnosis.

The neuropathologist, after diagnostics, determines by accompanying signs at which level of the nervous system there are pathological processes that caused staggering during movements. Based on the results of the examination, treatment is prescribed.

Treating unsteadiness while walking

Having identified the causal nature of gait disorders, the doctor offers a set of remedies:

The unsteadiness of walking is caused by taking medication, then the dosage is reduced or the drug is changed;
Depressive and psychological disorders are treated with vitamin complexes, a full diet, normalization of the daily routine;
For infectious processes, antibiotics are used;
For painful syndromes, pain relievers;
In case of injury, a course of treatment is carried out to restore and improve the functioning of the musculoskeletal system;
In the presence of serious diseases, symptomatic treatment of the disease that led to the occurrence of gait disturbances is carried out;
In some cases, surgery is used.

In all cases, a good rest, good nutrition, medical examination at least twice a year is prescribed.

Staggering when walking, an increasing feeling of weakness in the lower extremities - this is a reason to consult a doctor for examinations and timely treatment, which will ensure human health and the quality of his life.
