My wife is facing regular uncontrolled jerk movement in left leg and minor swelling and pain in left ankle area. Her left hand stays steady while walking and she feels unbalanced while walking. Additionally, she is unable to use her left hand much during different types of household jobs and her spite of movement/function has also become very slow. Can you please suggest what to do?
