Difficult to say: You would need to see a doctor and have an musculoskeletal and neurological evaluation to know. Talk with your doctor and get more information. You will have a better idea of how to manage this.

Maybe: There is not enough information to determine that difference. Dyspraxia has to do with speech...clumsy id different. An occupational therapy evaluation could help determine that difference. See your doctor and request a referral to OT. It will be beneficial whether you have an actual problem or find out ways to improve clumsiness.
