What exactly is the reason for stumbling and falling while walking?

Patient's question:

A 3-year-old child with unsteady walking, frequent falls, and leg pain after walking 100 meters. Blood tests showed elevated GPT and CK-MB, while other results were normal. Electromyography indicated nerve damage in both lower limbs, but there was no history of trauma. What could be the diagnosis? MRI did not reveal any abnormalities, and the neurology examination also did not lead to a conclusion.

Doctor's answer:

Cerebellar development is not good. Don't worry. Some children have relatively late cerebellar development. Currently. The focus is on the issue of walking instability. Currently. The cause of this symptom is still unclear. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up of the cervical spine and head magnetic resonance imaging. To rule out the possibility of intracranial and spinal cord lesions. We need to identify the cause and provide targeted treatment to achieve effective results. It is recommended to go to a tertiary hospital.
