Muscle Weakness
Motor nerves send signals from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles.
When those signals are disrupted, muscles may feel weaker.
You might notice:
- difficulty opening jars
- dropping objects
- trouble climbing stairs
- difficulty lifting the front of the foot
- legs feeling unusually heavy
- reduced grip strength
Persistent or progressive weakness should be medically evaluated.
6. Balance Problems or Frequent Tripping
Nerves help your brain understand where your feet and legs are positioned.
When sensation becomes impaired, balance can suffer.
Possible signs include:
- stumbling more often
- feeling
unstable
