After a while, people begin to develop what is known as the “parkinsonian gait,” including the tendency to lean forward and take small, quick steps forward (festination).The swinging of one’s arms may also be reduced, and the individual can have trouble initiating and continuing movement in a symptom called “freezing.” Symptoms sometimes begin on one side of the body or even a single limb, however, the entire body is eventually affected.
