Mobility Disability

A disability that affects a person's ability to move freely, including walking, climbing stairs, maintaining balance, or using fine motor skills. Mobility disabilities may result from conditions such as spinal cord injury, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, amputation, arthritis, or muscular dystrophy. In the context of accessibility, mobility disabilities are a primary consideration in the design of physical environments, transportation systems, and digital interfaces, as affected individuals may use wheelchairs, walkers, crutches, or other mobility aids that require accessible infrastructure such as ramps, elevators, and wide doorways.
