10 Lou Gehrig's Disease Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #6: Clumsiness
People with Lou Gehrig’s disease have a hard time controlling their motor functions, and this is particularly true in the arms and hands. Since these muscles are responsible for our ability to grasp, hold, and carry things, people with the condition are prone to seeming clumsy.
It can be hard for a person with Lou Gehrig’s to hold on to a coffee cup, for example, because they may lose control over the muscles in their hand and drop it. This can make it very hard for them to maintain their functions in a daily life.
