Myelopathy happens when the spinal cord is injured or compressed and begins to malfunction. When that occurs, you can become really clumsy and spastic, meaning you have difficulty controlling your motions so they become jerky, uncoordinated, and awkward looking. In some ways it can look like you’ve had too much to drink, especially when going downstairs or trying to walk a straight line. If this sounds familiar, follow for more on spine health.
