Hypoglycemia: If the hand tremor is caused by hypoglycemia, you should eat some candies, bread and other foods in time, which will help to raise blood sugar and improve the symptoms of hand tremor. If the symptoms are serious, you can follow the doctor’s instructions to apply glucose solution to quickly raise blood sugar and improve clinical symptoms.

4. Hyperthyroidism: If the hand tremor is caused by hyperthyroidism, drugs such as methylthiouracil and propylthiouracil can be applied. If necessary, surgical treatment should be considered, such as subtotal thyroidectomy and total thyroidectomy.
