Hello everyone! !

It is "Kumagai Internal Medicine and Neurology Clinic" near Motomachi Chinatown.

 

Symptoms of hand tremors are often a sign of brain disease.

Therefore, this time I will introduce the diseases that cause hand tremors.

 

• Diseases that cause hand tremors

Diseases that cause hand tremors include the following:

・ Essential tremor

・ Parkinson disease

・ Hyperthyroidism (rickets)

・ Stroke such as cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage

・ Spinocerebellar degeneration

・ Multiple sclerosis

・ Alcoholism

These may show symptoms other than shaking hands, such as stiffness and difficulty walking.

 

• Visit a doctor if you have other symptoms

The above-mentioned illness may show symptoms other than hand tremor.

Conversely, if only hand tremors are occurring, you do not need to worry so much.

If you have a headache, nausea, or vomiting other than hand tremor, you may have a serious illness hidden, so consult a medical institution as soon as possible.
