Hello,

After going through the medical details, provided by you I understand your concern for your father's health. I would like to tell you that CT brain report of your father is not good as it is saying about multiple infarcts in the brain due to which his brain cells are damaged, and neurons are losing the connection between them, which is causing all his symptoms of falling. You should immediately consult a neurologist or brain specialist for physical evaluation and some required test.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap
