TREMORS
A tremor is an involuntary movement that affects an area of the body. The commonly affected parts are arms, head, and hands. Tremors may appear as persistent shaking, nodding, or trembling. Tremors range from mild to severe. In severe cases, it consists of severe tremors that interfere completely with everyday activities to an extent to which an individual may not be able to write, drink, or hold objects.
The common causes of tremors include:
- Brain injury
- Genetic issues
- Thyroid disease
- Liver failure
- Issues affecting the nervous system
- Multiple sclerosis
- Parkinson’s disease
People who are most likely to be affected by tremors are old people, the stress in some people, or people who consume excess alcohol. At New York Neurology Associates, a comprehensive physical examination is conducted and includes an in-depth medical history, which helps in the diagnosis. Other tests that may be conducted are blood tests and nerve studies. Specialists may subscribe to medications for patients with Parkinson’s disease or deep brain stimulation. In deep brain stimulation, a tiny device is implanted beneath the skin that sends electrical impulses to specific areas in the brain.
In some cases, tremors cause pain and discomfort; hence, the specialist may recommend physical therapy, which enables the patient to learn ways in which he/she can control movements, thus reducing discomfort and improving functions.
At New York Neurology Associates, patients’ health and safety, together with the team and the surrounding community, are of great importance; thus, services offered are high quality and guarantee patients of a positive impact.
