Ataxia

Ataxia is a disorder in the coordination of movements with normal muscle strength. Disturbances in the amplitude and coordination of voluntary limb movements, and inability to maintain body posture and balance. However, it does not include the coordination disorder that occurs when the limb is slightly paralyzed, the random movement deflection caused by ophthalmoplegia, the difficulty of voluntary movement caused by visual impairment, and apraxia caused by brain disease.
