8 Ways to Reduce Your Risk of Falling

Falling can be painful, but for many, the real pain is not the initial impact, but the resulting injuries such as broken hips and fractured wrists that require physiotherapy. The Arthritis Foundation highlights 8 steps you can take to prevent future slips and falls.
  1. Don’t multitask while walking. Distractions such as texting while walking limits your ability to recognize when a possible fall is about to take place.
  2. Exercise. Engaging in strengthening exercises and routines will improve your flexibility, coordination and balance. Proper balance with correct weight shifting will reduce your chances of falling.
  3. Get your eyes tested. It is important to see where you are going and poor vision can hinder your ability to walk freely without obstacles.
  4. Consider your medications. Many prescribed medications can cause excessive drowsiness or dizziness. Talk to your doctor about possible alternative medications that won’t interfere with everyday tasks that would increase your chances getting an injury. 
  5. Make your home safer. Simple fixes around the house can make your home more accessible and safe. Clearing the floors and hallways, securing throw rugs and using shower mats are easy ways of avoiding unnecessary falls in your own home.
  6. Choose comfortable footwear. Shoes such as high heels and flimsy flip flops hinder your ability to walk without altering your gait and balance. Choosing shoes with proper support and comfortable insoles
  7. Keep an eye on your pet. A study done by the CDC found that pets lead to about 86,600 falls a year. Whether it’s a small cat or large dog, animals can be easily tripped over which throws you off your balance.
  8. Reorganize. Keep items that are used on a regular basis within reach to avoid using step ladders or standing on chairs.

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn't stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn't feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email [email protected]

I was really stressed by Erectile dysfunction issues and had consulted Dr Moses Buba. He gave us a thorough consultation and the medicines were equally effective. In a couple of weeks there was big improvement in me and we are very pleased with the progress. We cannot thank Dr Moses Buba enough. Highly recommended.
