Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that your father has some spinal cord lesion.
The nature and cause of his problem can be ascertained only on MRI of the spine which will reveal the site and nature of pathology.
Please consult qualified Orthopaedic Surgeon or Neurosurgeon for assessment and further treatment.
