What Is Parkinson’s Disease?

Parkinson’s disease is a neurologic condition characterized by motor dysfunction. It usually occurs progressively and leads to motor dysfunction as well as dysfunction in other functions of the nervous system.

The symptoms and progression of the condition differ between patients.

At Neuraxis, the approach to this disease is based on a comprehensive patient assessment to determine the appropriate treatment plan.

What Are the Early Signs of Parkinson’s Disease?

These may sometimes be subtle.
Some of the potential early symptoms are:

Tremor in the hands
Slow movement
Muscle rigidity
Change in writing abilities
Decreased arm swing when walking
Changes in gait pattern
Trouble with fine motor skills
Changes in speech or facial expression

What Causes Parkinson’s Disease?

It is not clear what causes Parkinson’s disease.

The disease has been linked to abnormalities in particular brain cells responsible for regulating movements. It could be caused by the interplay of genetic and environmental factors.

04. Review of Current Medicine/History

Medications and other health problems might be reviewed since some diseases and medicines can have similar symptoms to Parkinson's.

05
