Name three potential physical ailments that patients with dementia may suffer with.

Falls and Fractures: Patients with dementia often suffer from mobility issues which can lead to falls and subsequent fractures. This is due to a combination of physical weakness, balance problems, and confusion.

Malnutrition and Dehydration: Dementia can affect a person's ability to remember to eat and drink, or how to chew and swallow. This can lead to malnutrition and dehydration, which can exacerbate other health problems.

Infections: Dementia patients are more susceptible to infections, particularly urinary tract infections and pneumonia. This is due to a combination of factors including a weakened immune system, difficulty in communicating symptoms, and in some cases, poor personal hygiene.
