What’s wrong with the old man’s shaky legs?

Leg shaking in the elderly can be Parkinson’s disease, Parkinson’s syndrome, or hepatomegaly. Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease, and most Parkinson’s syndromes have cerebrovascular disease, usually seen in multiple cerebral infarctions. It may also occur if the patient has a cerebral infarction in the basal ganglia region. Most patients present with hand tremors and may also have leg tremors, as well as present with increased muscle tone. Patients can present with bradykinesia and may also have stiffness in the extremities. Some patients can present with a masked face, and in advanced stages, they can present with abnormal posture and gait, showing a panicked gait. In the case of hepatomegaly, the lesion may typically involve both the hepatomegaly and the cornea. Due to impaired copper metabolism, patients may present with abnormal liver function, manifested as corneal kf rings, along with shaking hands, feet, and legs.
