    Drug-induced tremor usually presents with hand tremors. Its main manifestation is hand tremor when doing fine movements, such as writing, holding chopsticks, buttoning, etc., hand tremor will be more obvious when emotional tension and fatigue, and this symptom will be relatively reduced or completely disappeared when the spirit is relaxed or rested. In terms of diet, you can eat more anti-arteriosclerosis foods, such as vegetables, fruits, etc., and you should live regularly to avoid tiredness, and you also need to pay attention to the balance of mentality, read more books and use your brain diligently, and you can often go out and walk around.

    Secondly, essential tremor is an autosomal dominant familial genetic disease, I believe everyone also knows the symptoms of this disease, the tremor of this disease is aggravated when concentration, mental tension, fatigue, and hunger, and temporarily disappears after drinking, and worsens the next day. The shaking is more obvious when holding chopsticks, serving tea and pouring water, threading needles and threads, etc., which is also a characteristic of essential tremor. Below I will summarize for you several ** ways of essential tremor.

    Psychological**: Patients with essential tremor will affect gatherings and social interactions when they develop the disease, and some will be accompanied by palpitation and depression, so they have to face up to this fact, try to calm their mood, and do not lose their temper, and their emotions are directly related to the condition.

    Western medicine**: Western medicine believes that essential tremor** appears in brain supplements, common drugs** are medopa, antan, dopamine, carbamazepine, propranol, Almar, etc., as well as vitamins, methylcobalamin, gamma oryzanol, etc., the former is said to be a drug that inhibits nerves, and the latter is a drug that nourishes nerves, which is the choice of most patients, and the effect varies from person to person.

    Western medicine surgery**: Now surgery is considered by patients to be the best way at present, minimally invasive surgery, but according to the understanding, the effect of surgery can only last for about ten years, and the cost will be more than 200,000 yuan after the time.

    Traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture**: The patients who come to Chinese medicine ** are basically Western medicine ** to find Chinese medicine without results, Chinese medicine has acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine**, acupuncture ** effect is not great, some people do acupuncture only have a simple relief at that time, and some people do not get relief at all.

    Traditional Chinese Medicine**: Traditional Chinese medicine calls essential tremor tremor, and it is understood that there are many patients who have received traditional Chinese medicine** and have no effect, is Chinese medicine really so unbearable? Is medicine, which has been passed down for thousands of years, really in vain?

    Speaking of which, I want to clarify this fact, Chinese medicine can be the first essential tremor, with thousands of years of history and culture of traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down to the present, not all doctors are proficient in everything, everyone must be specialized in surgery, each has its own strengths, plus essential tremor This disease was rare before, and there are very few doctors who mainly have this disease, it is that in recent years, people's work pressure and living habits have caused a lot of patients with this disease, but there are still very few doctors who can ** this disease, Therefore, most patients cannot find a doctor who can cure the disease, so they cannot get an effective **, and not all Chinese medicine cannot treat this disease.
