Ataxia

La ataxia es una incapacidad para coordinar los movimientos voluntarios de los músculos. Una persona con ataxia parece estar fuera de equilibrio al estar de pie e inestable o tambaleante al caminar.

Las causas más comunes de la ataxia son el consumo de alcohol y drogas, la inflamación del oído interno (laberintitis) y el ataque cerebral. La ataxia también puede estar causada por otros problemas, como las infecciones del oído, el vértigo posicional paroxístico benigno (VPPB), la epilepsia o los trastornos del sistema nervioso, como la parálisis cerebral o la enfermedad de Parkinson.
