It would be ridiculous to suggest that old people do not have physical disabilities. Many more old people have osteoarthritis, a degenerate disease of the joints, than young people, and consequently find movement difficult or painful or both. Today, medicine can offer you help in coping with this uncomfortable disease but you need to start coping in middle age if you find that you have persisting pain in your joints or marked stiffness. If you are overweight, eat less and reduce your weight. Adjust your lifestyle to minimize the disability. See your doctor, who may prescribe drugs, the most useful and cheapest of which is aspirin. Unfortunately, osteoarthritis is slowly progressive, so that in old age your disability may increase. If your hip or knee joints are affected, modern surgery can make you mobile and without pain by replacing your damaged joints with plastic covers, or by fixing the joint in the most comfortable and useful position.
