1. Some elderly patients with essential tremor have speech impairment; Dystonia accounted for 6% and 47% of patients. Postural tremor is also prevalent in dystonia, especially writing spasm, and in dystonia, 7% and 23% are associated with essential tremor, spasmodic torticollis is often accompanied by head and trunk tremors, and in a small number of members of the essential tremor family, other movement disorders such as tic-Tourette-Treette syndrome and restless legs syndrome are common in patients with essential tremor diagnosed by health searches, and there are also cases with malignant hyperthermia; 2. Affect the patient's normal activities: Tremor affects activity 10 to 20 years after the onset of the disease, and the severity increases with age, so that the ability to complete fine activities is impaired.
It peaked in the 6th decade after the onset of the disease. Eighty-six percent of patients by the age of 60 to 70 years have an impact on social activities and life skills, including writing, drinking, eating, dressing, speech, and manipulation. The greater the tremor amplitude, the greater the effect on mobility, and there was no difference in the effect of tremor on gender health search; 3. Psychological injury.

Essential tremor is more harmful, mainly manifested as postural tremor, which is an involuntary but rhythmic tremor of the limb muscles. Tremors that normally begin in the upper extremities can also affect the head, heels, trunk, voices, and facial muscles. In addition, the following four hazards occur:
1. The symmetry of both sides begins with the hands, affecting the head, neck, voice, legs, torso, etc.
2. Some patients start with the head and neck and tongue, and the voice is trembling, but few patients start from the legs.
3. If the tremor starts from the hand, most of them start from the second or.
It starts with three or four fingers, so it is more difficult to detect it early.
4. The patient will have the flexor and extensor muscles of the limbs, and the rhythmic upward and downward vibration movements are the mainstay.
Essential tremor needs to be checked in the hospital in time, but the current hospital examination method is mainly based on some physical symptoms, and can also be diagnosed through physical examination, laboratory tests, imaging examinations, etc. Thereafter, the patient may be given medications, including primidone and arololol. If the patient's drug fails, he can change the method of surgery and traditional Chinese medicine.
In addition, patients should also do a good job of limb function exercises, including the maximum range of flexion and extension of each joint and rotation.

1. Essential tremor will affect the patient's fine movements. During an episode of essential tremor, the patient's hands will shake involuntarily, and he will not be able to hold anything at all, or even be unable to pour water to drink and eat, which will seriously affect the patient's daily life.
2. Essential tremor can lead to diseases of movement disorders. For example, patients with Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, have a much higher risk of developing Parkinson's disease than normal people, and may reach 24 times.
3. Essential tremor may cause speech disorders. People with essential tremor may cause symptoms when they encounter people or things that make them nervous, and the tongue will tremble, which will cause the voice to tremble, and severe patients may not be able to communicate with people normally, which will seriously affect the patient's daily communication.

Essential tremor is more common in the late teens or early adulthood, and tremor is the only clinical symptom that manifests as postural or action tremor, often involving one or both hands or head, and the symptoms do not become apparent until later.
In addition to causing physical and social embarrassment, it usually does not cause disability, and in some cases tremor can interfere with the completion of fine motor movements such as writing, and when the laryngeal muscles are affected, it can affect speech, and the lower extremities are often not affected. Patients often report significant relief from small amounts of alcohol consumption, but this is short-lived and the mechanism is unclear. Examination usually shows no other neurologic signs.
Essential tremor affects activity after 10 to 20 years of onset, increasing in severity with age, resulting in impaired ability to perform fine activities, reaching a peak in the 6th decade after onset, 86% of patients by 60 to 70 years of age can affect social activities and living ability, including writing, drinking, eating, dressing, speech, and manipulation. The greater the tremor amplitude, the greater the effect on mobility, and there was no difference in the effect of tremor on gender health search;
Muscle stiffness: People with essential tremor often become stiff in their limbs and torso. The early stages of the lesion usually begin on one limb.
At the beginning, I feel that the movement of one limb is inflexible and stiff, and gradually worsens, and I have difficulty in moving slowly, and even do some daily life movements.
Resting tremor: Tremor is often the earliest manifestation of the disease, usually starting at the distal end of one upper extremity, mainly the thumb, index finger, and middle finger, and is manifested by finger movements that seem to be rubbing balls or counting bills. It then gradually extends to the ipsilateral lower and contralateral limbs, and in the late stage may affect the jaw, lips, tongue, and head.
Bradykinesia: In the early stage, due to the rigidity of the upper arm muscles and finger muscles, the patient's upper limbs are often unable to perform fine movements, such as untying shoelaces and buttoning, which become much slower than before, or cannot be completed smoothly at all. Writing also gradually became difficult, the handwriting was crooked, and the writing became smaller and smaller.
Special posture: Although the patient's whole body muscles can be affected and muscle tone increases, the flexor muscle tone is higher than that of the extensor muscles at rest, so the patient has special postures: head forward tilt, trunk slightly flexed, upper arm adduction, elbow flexion, wrist slightly extended, metacarpophesal joint flexion and interphalangeal joint straightened, thumb to palm, hip and knee joint slightly flexed.
It is still a little affected, mainly because there is no ** medicine and very effective ** method, although most essential tremor patients only have a slight tremor, only the patient needs **, less than 50% of them can control the symptoms well with drugs, but the rest of the patients are not sensitive to drugs, ** effect is not good. So it's still a bit serious.
The only typical symptom of essential tremor is tremor, which is occasionally accompanied by abnormalities in intonation and slight gait. Patients usually start with the upper limbs, which mainly affect the upper limbs, but can also affect the muscles of the head, legs, trunk, and face. Presents with postural tremor, which may also contain a motility, intention, or resting tremor component. >>>More
