Tremors can be severely impacting both functionally and socially.
Whilst many people suffer from occasional tremors in their hands (commonly known as physiologic tremors); for some it can be a hereditary condition that runs through your family (such as essential tremors). These tremors often worsen with age.
Parkinson’s Disease is a common movement disorder, where nearly 80% of patients have tremor commonly at presentation as well as other signs to assist in diagnosis.
Management and treatment strategies for Parkinson’s Disease can vary depending on the stage and severity of the disease, and should be guided by a Neurologist. Treatments can include advanced therapies such as Deep Brain Stimulation.
