Comment on Walking slower? Your ears, not your knees, might be the problemparent

Comments

My mother had bad knees before dementia took her mentally so always walked slow, we have friends who’s parents had no walking problems and were ‘escape risks’.

A walker might help as slowness is sometimes due to fear of falling.

My mother used a wheeled walker with hand brakes for several years before we switched her to the no-wheel kind.
