What are the typical characteristics of Parkinson s?

The typical symptoms of Parkinson's mainly include resting tremor, muscle rigidity, bradykinesia, and postural disorders. Resting tremor is often the first symptom, usually starting distal to one upper limb, appearing or noticeable at rest, lessening or stopping with voluntary movements, exacerbating with tension, and disappearing after falling asleep. Typical ball-like movements of the thumb and forefinger can be seen.

Muscle rigidity mainly refers to the increase in resistance when the joint is passively moved, and the patient has a special flexion posture. Bradykinesia is mainly manifested as a decrease in voluntary movements, slow and clumsy movements, and in the early stage, it is manifested as a slowness of fine finger movements, such as buttoning buttons and tying shoes, and gradually develops into a decrease in generalized voluntary movements. In the late stage, it is associated with increased muscle tone, which can lead to difficulty rolling over and getting up.

Postural disorders are mainly manifested as when walking, the patient's upper limb swing arm amplitude decreases or disappears, the lower limb drags, and with the progression of the disease, the whole body will freeze and cannot move during walking, which is called freezing; Or it is a small broken step, which goes faster and faster and cannot stop, which is called a forward gait or panic gait. At the same time, Parkinson's patients may also experience non-motor symptoms such as depressed mood, anxiety, sleep disorders, and cognitive impairment.

The characteristic is that the hands are often trembling slightly, and the feet are shaking, and they don't even understand this.

Four distinguishing features.

1. Resting tremor: When you are stationary, one side of the hand tremors, especially the thumb and index finger, looks like you are rubbing pills and counting banknotes.

2. Reduced and slow movements: In the early stage of the disease, there will be fewer expressions, which is often referred to as "mask face". And it is accompanied by movements, slow turning, and in ordinary life, getting up, turning over, and walking all begin to appear slowly.

3. Stiffness of limbs: body muscles are stiff, and the body feels wrinkled and tight.

4. Postural balance disorder: the posture of the body changes, and it is easy to fall. Usually, the neck and body are always bent forward, and when walking, they have a forward gait and a panicked gait, and they can't stop when they want to.

Parkinson's disease, also known as parkinsonism, is a relatively common neurological disease in middle-aged and elderly people, and its main clinical features are resting tremor, muscle rigidity, bradykinesia and abnormal posture and gait.

Parkinson's is characterized by three main symptoms: resting tremor, increased muscle tone, decreased movement, and essential features are psychiatric symptoms and progressive dementia.

1. Muscle rigidity, stiffness of hands and feet. The patient has difficulty starting, or walks with a somewhat panicked gait and rushes forward with small steps; 2. Trembling hands, also known as tremor, will tremble when it is quiet, but he will not shake when he falls asleep, or generally will not shake when he is holding something.
