What should I do if I have essential tremor and hand tremors?

Essential tremor hand tremor is carried out according to the severity of the tremor**, and there are three conditions:

1. The degree of tremor of the patient is mild and does not affect work and life, and the tremor can be relieved by adjusting emotions and exercises;

2. If the tremor has affected work and life, the patient will generally be given drugs**. The most commonly used first-line drugs are receptor blockers, such as propranolol and Almar; Antiepileptic drugs, such as primidone. Commonly used second-line drugs include carbamazepine, betaloc, gabapentin, or pregabalin, among others;

3. If the effect of the drug is not good and the tremor is aggravated, surgery can be considered.

The specific medication should be combined with clinical practice, and the doctor's face-to-face guidance shall prevail.

The exact condition of the disease remains unclear. It may be the result of a combination of peripheral spindle afferents and central autonomic oscillators. The ventro-intermediate nucleus (VIM) of the thalamus, a nucleus that receives proprioceptive afferents, may play a key role in the rhythmic burst firing activity of neurons, as confirmed by both neurophysiological recordings and stereotactic surgery.

PET studies with oxygen(15[O])-labeled CO2 showed selective bilateral cerebellum and inferior olive nucleus hypermetabolism. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) showed increased activity in the contralateral cortical motor and sensory areas, globus pallidus, and thalamus, and hyperactivity in both dentate nuclei, cerebellar hemispheres, and red nucleus in both affected limbs. These suggestive tremors are a result of the cerebellar-olive nucleus circuit** in the thalamus and motor cortex-spinal pathways.

Because there are no specific changes in pathological anatomy, the location of the abnormally vibrating central nervous system "pacemaker" is unknown, so it is speculated that the central oscillator is enhanced or inhibited by peripheral reflexes that regulate the production and amplitude of tremor.

You can choose to try to use Chinese medicine**.

How long has it been, you can try the Chinese medicine Shili anti-fibrillation prescription, how is the situation now.

Essential tremor, slight hand tremor can be left untreated**. If hand tremors worsen, here's how:

First, the drug**. Propranolol (40 120 mg three times a day) can be used temporarily in patients with significant tremor in certain situations. However, it should be noted that propranolol has the effect of slowing down the heart rate, so it is necessary to monitor the changes in heart rate during use.

Some patients can use prixidrone 100 150 mg three times a day, starting with small doses and gradually increasing them. For some patients, clozapine can be used, starting with a small dose, starting with a dose of 25 mg 2 or 3 times a day, and gradually increasing slowly. Clonazepam 1 2 mg three times a day can also be used.

Second, non-pharmacological**. For patients who are ineffective with drugs** and the disease is gradually worsening, botulinum toxin type A injections can be considered to block peripheral nerve endings**, which is usually more effective.

Exercise can help relieve the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, improve exercise ability, and prevent cognitive decline. Common forms of exercise include aerobic exercise, strength training, and flexibility exercises. Aerobic exercise is mainly to improve and enhance the body's aerobic activity capacity, such sports include walking, jogging, cycling.

Calisthenics, etc. Strength training is a movement that focuses on strengthening strength and toning the body, such as strength exercises using weight-bearing methods such as dumbbells and elastic bands or resistance methods. Flexibility exercises are mainly exercises that stretch muscles and ligaments, and are accompanied by exercises that adjust the rhythm of breathing, such as yoga, tai chi, health exercises, etc.

This form of exercise is mainly composed of stretching and balance exercises.

Hand tremors and shaking of the head are common symptoms in middle-aged and elderly people. Many people's first reaction to these situations is to suspect that they have Parkinson's disease and are very worried. In fact, many diseases can cause hand tremors.

Hand tremor and shaking the head are medically called tremor, and the common causes are essential tremor, hyperthyroidism, liver cirrhosis, cerebellar disease, long-term drinking, taking certain drugs, etc. Among them, essential tremor is the most common cause of tremor, which can occur at all ages, mostly in middle-aged and elderly people, and the cause is still unknown, but half of the patients' first-degree relatives have similar tremors, suggesting that the disease may be genetic.

The tremor of Parkinson's disease often begins in one upper or lower limb, especially in the hand, which is mostly resting, that is, the tremor when relaxed and stationary, and disappears when moving and exerting force. Hand tremor typically presents as a "pill-rubbing" or "banknote-counting tremor" that is easily detected when walking. However, in the early stages of Parkinson's disease, tremors of the head, jaw, lips, and tongue are rare.

In addition to tremor, patients often have symptoms such as stiffness and inflexibility in the limbs, and doctors may also find increased muscle tone on examination.

Go to a professional doctor and make a corresponding data plan through examination.

Essential tremor runs in families, and many people with essential tremor have a family history of the disease. Although in modern medicine, essential tremor disease is a chromosomal genetic disease, if essential tremor patients do not undergo **, it will also bring certain harm to the physical and mental health of essential tremor patients. Let's take a look at the small home remedies for essential tremor, hand tremors, and head tremors.

**Small home remedies for essential tremor, shaking hands, and shaking heads.

1. Shou Wu Angelica Chicken Soup: 15 grams of He Shou Wu and Angelica sinensis, 10 grams of wolfberry and mountain corn meat, and 1 hen. Chickens are slaughtered and haired, and the internal organs are washed.

Wash the above-mentioned Chinese medicine, put it into the belly of the chicken, put it in the clay pot, add an appropriate amount of water, stew it over low heat until the chicken is crispy, add salt to taste, eat the chicken and drink the soup, this medicinal diet has the effect of tonifying the kidney and intellect, strengthening the brain and stopping fibrillation.

Glutinous rice and red dates have the effect of nourishing qi and strengthening the brand, nourishing the kidney and nourishing blood; Yam has the effect of nourishing the spleen and stomach, invigorating the lungs and kidneys. The combination of the above foods has a good effect on the prevention and treatment of tremor syndrome caused by degeneration of the central nervous system.

3. Lily longan pot eggs: 50 grams of fresh lily, 10 grams of longan meat, two eggs, and an appropriate amount of sugar. The lilies are washed, the eggs are boiled and the shells are removed.
