Comments to walk and run in ambulance clinical neurologist

Human walking and running are rightly considered to represent an optimal physical activity for almost everyone. We recapitulate the principal kinesiology and neurophysiological findings about human locomotion. Futhermore this is present with respect to underestanding of painful movement disorders particularly as the result of functional physical discoordination during both prolonged fast walking and recreational running. We suggest selected diagnostic and therapeutic bases useful for the clinical neurologist.

Keywords: locomotion, walking, running, bipedal upright posture, painful disorders of the locomotor system.
