I often have head shaking, what are the factors of head shaking?

Essential tremor is common when the patient is doing things can not see the patient's hand tremor, but as long as the patient holds a cup, especially when holding a lighter wine glass or paper cup, the patient's hand will have obvious tremor, especially in concentration, nervousness, fatigue, hunger, most cases temporarily disappear after drinking, the next day aggravation, which is also the characteristics of essential tremor. Essential tremor is chronic, not the most severe condition. The early stage of essential tremor generally begins with tremor in one hand, and gradually can affect the ipsilateral upper limbs, including both upper limbs, neck, jaw, tongue, larynx, and even lower limb tremors.

Hand tremor is a common pathological phenomenon in the elderly population, and there are many reasons for hand tremor, as long as we look closely, we will find that many elderly people have symptoms of hand tremor. The uncontrollable shaking of the hands sometimes doesn't even notice it. So what is the problem of hand tremor in the elderly, hand tremor is usually divided into physiological hand tremor and pathological hand tremor.

Normal people will have physiological hand tremors in some cases, it is not a disease and does not need to be **. This kind of hand shaking is small and fast, mostly appears when quiet, and is a small, fast, irregular shaking, often related to mental tension, fear, emotional agitation, etc.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, go to a regular hospital to register an account to find a doctor, which is more useful than asking online for a year. Professional matters are left to professional people.

1.Parkinson's disease: If the elderly patient has symptoms such as head shaking, limb stiffness, and slow movement, it is necessary to seek medical attention as soon as possible to determine whether it is Parkinson's disease.

2.Parkinsonism: if the patient has a young age of onset, the presence of parkinsonism should be considered.

3.Wilson's disease: patients with head shaking need to have ceruloplasmin tests to determine whether there is extrapyramidal disease such as Wilson's disease.

4.Primary disease: Some patients belong to the primary disease, that is, the head shaking caused by essential tremor, and such patients have no clear abnormalities in various auxiliary examinations, and the prognosis is relatively good.

There are many reasons for the symptoms of head tremor, and if the symptoms of head tremor are accompanied by tremors of the legs or body and facial muscles, it may be related to essential tremor. If the head shake is accompanied by limb tremors, bradykinesia, muscle rigidity and other symptoms, it may be related to Parkinson's disease. If you have symptoms of hand tremors, such as palpitation, irritability, sweating, and protruding eyes, it may be related to thyroid disease.

Emotional instability, excessive anger, agitation, lack of sleep, low indoor temperature, cold, etc., may also cause hand tremors. Suffering from cerebrovascular disorders, lacunar cerebral infarction, cerebral arteriosclerosis, cerebral thrombosis, etc., are also the causes of head shaking. An increase in body temperature after a cold or diabetes may also cause head shaking, so you should go to the hospital and make sure that you will do it later.

The shaking of the head may be caused by tremors, and it is advisable to see a neurologist for such patients. The patient may be caused by Parkinson's disease, patients with Parkinson's disease will have resting finger tremor or head shaking, and the patient will also have head shaking with increased muscle tone, the most common reason is that this is an unclear tremor, the patient is overly nervous and anxious, and the shaking is aggravated when the patient is overly excited, essential tremor can be taken orally, Alma to relieve the symptoms at the same time, the patient needs to remain optimistic, avoid over-agitation of the thyroid gland, the heartbeat is often faster, the amount of food is large, and the weight loss has obvious symptoms of hyperthyroidism. There are several reasons for the shaking of the head, first, it is not excluded that it is a kind of essential tremor, if there is no other abnormal feeling of physical discomfort, you can choose not to **, and there is no need to worry, second, it is not excluded that it is caused by high nervous tension, this situation is generally and emotional overexcitement and anxiety, in the face of complicated things, too many cranial nerves can not be fully relaxed, so it is usually necessary to pay attention to maintaining a comfortable mood, and the third step is to rule out that it is caused by Parkinson's disease.

Generally, the elderly have trembling hands and heads, which are related to the brain, and it is best to take the elderly to the hospital system for examination, Parkinson's disease is easy to shake, to see if it is, it is necessary to intervene as soon as possible to avoid further development.

Head tremors are thought to be caused by essential tremor. This disease belongs to the Department of Neurology, which mainly affects the extrapyramidal system, causing some involuntary movements of the head. In addition to the head, there may be some tremor in the upper limbs, and the patient may also perform certain activities, such as holding chopsticks or raising the hands, which is usually accompanied by corresponding tremor.

Head shaking, thought to be related to Parkinson's disease. Patients may present with resting tremor, and there may also be abnormalities such as muscle rigidity and gait posture. In addition, cervical spine disease and essential tremor can also cause the above symptoms.

Patients are advised to seek medical attention promptly. In addition, involuntary shaking of the head can also be seen in essential tremor. Head tremors can be caused by:

1.Parkinson's disease, which occurs mainly in older people, is usually accompanied by gait retardation, angular drainage, and dystonia. At present, there is no particularly effective method, mainly to improve the discomfort symptoms and delay the process of the lesion through comprehensive **.

2.Essential tremor is a benign tremor, which is mostly caused by genetic factors, mainly manifested as head tremor, limb tremor, etc. Tremors are exacerbated when the patient is overstressed and generally does not interfere with daily life.

3.Drug factors, if there are adverse reactions after taking some drugs, it can also cause head tremors, such as flunarizine hydrochloride capsules.

The cause of head tremor is mostly senile essential tremor, but also in Parkinson's disease and parkinsonism, and some patients with cerebellar infarction or cerebellar hemorrhage will also have sequelae of head tremor.

Essential tremor often has a genetic family history, the patient mainly manifests as postural and action tremor of the head, in addition to head tremor, there will also be a hand or both tremors, more obvious when moving, aggravated when the mood is nervous, a small amount of alcohol can temporarily relieve the tremor, generally does not affect the patient's lower limb activities, there is no muscle rigidity, bradykinesia symptoms.

If the head tremor interferes with daily life and work, you can go to the neurology department and take medication to relieve the symptoms under the guidance of a doctor. Parkinson's disease simply appears head tremor is relatively rare, most of them are tremors of one limb, develop to the other limb, insidious onset, gradual aggravation, often accompanied by bradykinesia, muscle rigidity, walking posture, gait abnormalities and other symptoms, also appear hyposmia, urine and fecal disorders, sleep disorders, anxiety, depression.

Medications** for Parkinson's disease have some effect, but they need to be taken according to a regular regimen under the guidance of a doctor. Head tremor can also be caused by Parkinson's syndrome, most of which are caused by cerebral infarction, sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, encephalitis, and carbon monoxide poisoning, and the symptoms are similar to those of Parkinson's disease, but they are less effective than Parkinson's disease against medopa and dopamine agonists.

The most common disease of head tremor is essential tremor. It is a disease with a clear genetic predisposition that may affect the patient's head, causing involuntary tremors of the head.
