I use crutches and have had scoliosis all my life and was never told by my doctors that my falling was contributed by my scoliosis but now in my 60's I do find that my balance is off and when I spoke to my doctor he still does not contribute the falling to my scoliosis

I was born with scoliosis. Lately every few months I take a fall....and BAD ONES. This last one I broke my left knee and right hand. Last fall, in June, I cracked my right femur and cracked my right hip. I REALLY think my scoliosis DOES contribute to my falls. This last time, I felt my right foot hit the back of my left leg. I'm DISGUSTED! Every time I take a fall, my fiance yells at me Like I Did It On Purpose! There HAS to be an explanation for this!
