Hand tremor is one of the common symptoms of middle-aged and elderly people, and many people think they have Parkinson’s disease when they encounter their hands, but they do not know that there is also a disease called idiopathic tremor, which also causes hand tremor symptoms, so how can idiopathic tremor and Parkinson’s disease be easily distinguished? The only clinical symptom of idiopathic tremor is postural tremor, common hand tremor, head tremor, and very few patients have lower limb tremor. Tremor is aggravated by concentration, nervousness, fatigue and hunger. In most cases, it disappears temporarily after alcohol consumption and worsens the following day. These can help with detection. Parkinson’s disease usually starts insidiously and progresses slowly. The main symptoms include tremor symptoms, muscle stiffness, motor slowing, and abnormal posture and gait. The onset of the disease usually begins with symptoms in one limb and progresses slowly to symptoms in both limbs. Many people are misdiagnosed with idiopathic tremor in the early stages, and are only diagnosed with the onset of stiffness and bradykinesia, delaying the disease. The difference between idiopathic tremor and Parkinson’s disease can also be distinguished by the medication taken. Idiopathic tremor disease then generally take Propranolol Hydrochloride or Aurolol Hydrochloride have an effect, if not, then other factors should be considered. Patients with Parkinson’s disease generally have an effect with methyldopa, and if the effect is not good, secondary Parkinson’s disease and Parkinson’s superimposed syndrome are also considered. Accurate treatment is carried out after exclusion one by one. 3, the genetic law difference idiopathic tremor is mostly family hereditary, about 60% of people have a family history, the history of the disease is slow to develop, many patients with hand tremors for 20 to 30 years, seriously affecting life, before they come to see a doctor, some patients a question about family history, the family will basically have similar cases. According to research findings, Parkinson’s disease is also hereditary, the heritability is not as high as idiopathic tremor, so obvious. People are afraid when they hear about heredity, but there is no need, heredity is a random combination of genes, so do your maternity check and let nature take its course. However, it is important to prevent secondary Parkinson’s disease and Parkinson’s superimposed syndrome, try not to contact chemical pesticides, toxic gases, protect the brain from injury, eat a light diet, and insist on exercise. Finally, remind everyone that symptoms appear in a timely manner, with the doctor’s treatment, regular medication on time and in the right amount, if the condition worsens, the drug effect is not good, you can also consider surgery, idiopathic tremor and Parkinson’s disease can be used deep brain electrical stimulation to control physical symptoms, but the stimulation target is different, the symptoms are well controlled, the patient can live like a normal person, I hope the above can help you.
