Freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease

This describes the term Freezing of Gait (FOG) that is one of the most disabling and least understood symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), and is usually observed in the advanced stage of the disease. FOG can be experienced on turning, in narrow spaces, whilst reaching a destination, and in stressful situations.
