A member asked:
I have sometimes fallen for no reason, is it cause i have hip implants and i still wobble a little, can that make you fall?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gait Training: Following hip replacements the outside hip muscles (hip abductors) often get weak. These muscles are necessary to stabilize you when walking or standing. However, if you are feeling light headed or dizzy, this may be coming from the spinal cord or brain. The latter scenarios should be evaluated
