What s the deal with shaking hands when you hold something? How to treat

If you will shake when you hold something in your hand, you may be thinking about essential tremor.

Essential tremor, also known as essential tremor, is a common movement disorder in which tremor is the only manifestation, and about 1 in 3 patients have a family history.

Essential tremor has an insidious onset and progresses slowly, but may resolve over a long period of time. It can occur at any age, and most people over 40 years of age have the disease. Tremor is the only clinical manifestation and is mainly postural tremor and action tremor, which is often seen in one or both upper limbs, and the head can also be involved, and the lower extremity is less affected.

In some patients, the tremor can be temporarily reduced after drinking, and the tremor can be aggravated by emotional agitation, nervousness, fatigue, cold, etc.

Of course, involuntary shaking of the hand, especially in the elderly, should also consider the possibility of Parkinson's disease. However, involuntary movements in Parkinson's disease usually appear when they are quiet and lessen when they are active. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for diagnosis in time**.

There are many reasons for shaking hands when holding things, and the common ** mainly has the following two aspects:

1. Physiological factors, such as common hand muscle spasms after excessive exercise, resulting in hand tremor symptoms. The above symptoms can also occur when hand tremors related to mental factors, such as mental tension and psychological stress. However, it is often transient and can be improved with adequate rest and removal of triggers.

2. Pathological factors, such as hyperthyroxine dysfunction and Parkinsonism, can be manifested as hand tremor, which needs to be identified and diagnosed by specialists. For example, hyperthyroidism patients are more common in young and middle-aged people, who will not only have hand tremors, but also have symptoms such as irritability, weight loss, and palpitations. Parkinson's patients are mainly common in elderly patients, and are often accompanied by slowness and muscle rigidity.

Therefore, the symptoms of hand tremor need to be clear and specific, and targeted ** should be carried out after the diagnosis is clear. Shaking hands may be caused by the following reasons: First, it may be convulsions caused by stroke, causing patients to shake their hands when holding things, and it is recommended that patients go to the hospital immediately for **.

In the event of a stroke, the patient can be given some medications**, such as aspirin. Pay attention to a light diet and pay more attention to rest. Second, it may also be due to hand tremor caused by excessive exercise, excessive exercise will put the body in a weak state, and the symptoms of hand tremor will occur when holding things, it is recommended that the patient rest and massage the hands.

Shaking hands may be caused by physiological factors such as nervousness and exertion, and may also be related to diseases such as hyperthyroidism, Parkinson's disease, and essential tremor.

1.Physiological factors: When people are nervous, the nervous excitability increases, and hand tremor symptoms can occur, and hand tremor symptoms occur when holding things due to weakness in the hands when overworked. This condition is physiological.

2.Hyperthyroidism: Hyperthyroidism is related to diffuse toxic goiter, abnormal iodine intake and other factors, patients will have rapid metabolism due to increased thyroid hormone secretion, manifested as tremor, irritability, tachycardia, etc., so some patients will have tremors in their hands.

3.Parkinson's disease: Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disease of the nervous system, which is related to factors such as aging, genetics, stroke, and traumatic brain injury.

4.Essential tremor: This is a common inherited movement disorder in which about 60% of patients have a family history and is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Tremor is characterized by action tremor, so hand tremors may occur when holding objects.

There are many reasons for hand tremor when holding things, such as hypoglycemia and respiratory alkalosis, if this symptom occurs, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time to improve the relevant examinations and follow the doctor's instructions for standardization**.

Holding something and shaking your hands may be a tremor phenomenon, or it may be muscle weakness, shaking when extracting heavy objects, shaking when doing fine movements, not shaking when doing some gravity work, etc. The causes are very complex, such as Parkinson's disease, thyroid disease, muscle atrophy, muscle disease, cervical spondylosis; Essential tremor, patients with a positive family history may also have hand tremors when doing some fine motor movements; Writing spasms, hand tremors can also occur when holding a pen to write, and writing cannot be formed. Therefore, the causes of hand tremors are particularly complex, with functional causes and major organic diseases.

If there is hand tremor, you must consult a professional doctor, collect and sort out the medical history, and conduct a series of clinically targeted examinations to finally diagnose the diagnosis, so as to have a good and targeted plan and receive good clinical results.

The most common cause of shaking when holding something, and not shaking when the hand is still when it is in a quiet place, is a condition called benign essential tremor. That is, the more you take some small things and do some more delicate movements, the more likely you are to have the symptoms of hand tremors. If the condition is not too severe, it can also be left undone** to avoid emotional tension and thus reduce the symptoms.

If the symptoms are severe and have interfered with daily life and work, symptomatic medications, most commonly those with receptor blockers. Almar or Arolol hydrochloride** can be taken, which have a certain effect on benign tremor, but must be taken with a clear diagnosis from a doctor. Some people have tremors in their hands due to nervousness, so it is important to relax and avoid excessive tension.

Hurry up to the hospital for a check-up.

Hand trembling** is as follows:

1. Physiological hand tremor, mainly for the adjustment of mentality, to divert attention, if necessary, can be carried out anti-anxiety, will be better controlled;

2. Pathological hand tremors, such as Parkinson's disease, are mainly the ** of drugs, and the symptoms are improved by drugs that supplement dopamine. If it is Wilson's disease or hepatic encephalopathy, it is mainly a primary disease, such as Wilson's disease, which is a hereditary disease, and we need to remove copper and use drugs such as penicillamine to reduce the symptoms of hand tremors. The specific medication should be combined with clinical practice, and the doctor's face-to-face guidance shall prevail.

If you do heavy work on a regular basis, you may experience this kind of hand shaking. If you feel numb or trembling hands, it is best to go to the hospital for a brain CT and cervical spine CT examination to see if there is a craniocerebral lesion or cervical spine disease. If this is the case, it is best to take a break from this kind of work and take a break for a while.

Take some medications to improve microcirculation.

If it is a psychological factor, it is mostly caused by nervous factors, and it can be slowly relieved by exercising and finding a psychologist to do psychological **. In the case of neurological diseases,

If you have a hand tremor that has lasted for a long time, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible for a full body examination to see what is causing the hand tremor?

It may be a manifestation of essential tremor, which can be done by traditional Chinese medicine.
