“Resting tremor is a pathological tremor that occurs when the active and antagonist muscles alternate in contraction, generally occurring during quiet time, decreasing during activity and disappearing during sleep, with a ‘pill-rolling’ movement of the thumb and remaining fingers, commonly seen in Parkinson’s disease.
Fluttering tremor is a pathological tremor, most often seen in the severe stages of metabolic disease, and is mainly a gross limb tremor.”
