Shaky hands reveal: Parkinson’s disease
We’ve all probably experienced shaky hands at one point or another. Typically a side effect of certain medications (antidepressants, asthma drugs, among others) or too much caffeine, this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t bring this symptom up during your next doctor’s appointment.
If you’ve noticed a tremor in one hand, that could be a sign of Parkinson’s disease. In fact, as many as 80% of people with this disease experience a tremor.
An essential tremor is also possible. This disorder causes uncontrollable shaking and those who suffer from it need medication and oftentimes therapy in order to manage it.
