This document discusses different types of gait abnormalities and their causes. It defines gait as the pattern of limb movement during locomotion. Gait abnormalities deviate from normal walking and can indicate neurological or musculoskeletal issues. Several specific gait abnormalities are described, including scissor gait caused by spastic cerebral palsy, antalgic gait indicating pain with weight bearing, festinant gait seen in Parkinson's disease, and Trendelenburg gait caused by abductor muscle weakness. The document provides examples of medical conditions associated with each abnormal gait pattern.
