This is a progressive disorder that highly affects the nervous system and also the different parts of the body that are controlled by the nerves. The symptoms start slowly. The first among the symptoms may be a barely noticeable tremor in just one of the hands. Tremors are usually common, but this disorder may also cause some amount of stiffness or slowing down of movement.

In the early stages of this disease, one’s face may show little or no expression. The arms may not swing while walking or speech may become soft or slurred. The symptoms worsen as the condition progresses over time.

Symptoms and when to see a doctor?

  • Tremor or rhythmic shaking usually begins in a limb, or may often start from your hand or fingers. This may make you rub your thumb and forefinger back and forth, called a pill-rolling tremor. But this shaking may decrease while performing tasks.

  • The slowed movement called bradykinesia is one of the symptoms. Over time, this disease may slow your movement, thus making some simple tasks difficult and even time-consuming. The steps may become shorter when on a walk. Rigid muscles and muscle stiffness may occur in any part of your body. 

  • Loss of automatic movement may lead to a decreased ability to perform unconscious movements, like blinking, smiling, or swinging arms when you walk.

  • Speech changes can mean the affected person will speak softly, quickly, slur, or hesitate before talking. The speech may be in a monotone manner rather than a normal one.

  • Writing changes can make it hard to write, and your writing may appear to be small.

When to see a doctor?

One should visit the healthcare provider if that person faces any of the symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease — not just to diagnose your condition but also to eliminate other causes for your symptoms.

Causes

Causes of Parkinson's

The cause is unknown, but several factors appear to play an important role: 

  • Genes. Researchers have identified some specific genetic changes as the cause of Parkinson’s disease. But these are very uncommon except that in some rare cases containing many family members affected by Parkinson’s disease.

  • Environmental triggers. Exposure to certain toxins may increase the risk of Parkinson’s disease happening later, but the risk is small.

  • Alpha-synuclein is found within Lewy bodies. Although many substances are found inside Lewy bodies, scientists believe an important one among them is a natural and widespread protein known as alpha-synuclein (a-synuclein).

  •  

Non-surgical treatments

  • Medications may help to manage problems associated with walking, movement, and tremor. These medications either increase or substitute for dopamine.

  • People with Parkinson’s disease have low dopamine concentrations in the brain. However, dopamine can not be given directly as it can not enter the brain.

  • There may be a significant improvement in your symptoms after the beginning of Parkinson’s disease treatment. But over time, the benefits of drugs frequently diminish or become less consistent.
