Dr. Ivana Dabaj Pediatric Neurology
you have tremors but not parkinson. there are different causes of tremors. it could be simple and caused by increase in caffeine intake for example , or it could be due to fatigue of the muscle but it also could be due to disorder in the cerebellum. Some medications might also be the cause. There are also some genetic diseases but they are usually associated with other symptoms. i prefer that you get examined to be sure there is no deficit, cerebellar signs and if necessary to order appropriate tests. since when do you have these symptoms? any walking difficulties? frequent falls? vision problems? what aggravate and decrease the tremors? what stimulate them?
