Serious Symptoms Of Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP)

Clumsiness

Clumsiness is a symptom where an individual has poor movement ability, poor coordination, or poor muscle actions. The damage nerves incur in a CIDP patient due to the absence of myelin causes the muscles to be unable to work properly in the affected part of the body. Individuals affected by clumsiness as a result of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy tend to experience weakness in the legs that makes it difficult for them to walk and stand, tripping on any ground that is not perfectly flat, problems with stepping onto a curb due to a clumsy gait, an inability to climb up or downstairs, and an inability to stand from a sitting position. Individuals who experience clumsiness in their arms or hands due to chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy may experience problems with turning a key in a lock, issues with fastening buttons on clothing, difficulty when brushing their hair and teeth, and problems picking up small objects like coins or a pen.
