Understanding Parkinson’s Disease

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement. It develops gradually, often starting with a barely noticeable tremor in one hand. Over time, Parkinson’s disease can cause stiffness or slowing of movement.

Symptoms

The symptoms of Parkinson’s disease can vary from person to person, but commonly include:

Tremor: A tremor, or shaking, usually begins in a limb, often your hand or fingers.
Bradykinesia: Slowed movement, making simple tasks difficult and time-consuming.
Rigidity: Muscle stiffness can occur in any part of your body.
Postural instability: Impaired balance and coordination, increasing the risk of falls.

Causes:

The exact cause of Parkinson’s disease is still unknown, but it’s believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Researchers have identified specific genetic mutations that can lead to Parkinson’s disease, but these are relatively rare.

Treatment:

While there is currently no cure for Parkinson’s disease, treatment aims to manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Treatment options may include:

Medications: Dopamine agonists, MAO-B inhibitors, and other medications can help manage symptoms and improve mobility.
Physical therapy: Exercises and techniques to improve balance, flexibility, and mobility.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS): A surgical procedure that can help control symptoms in some cases.
Lifestyle modifications: Regular exercise, a healthy diet, and adequate rest can all help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being.
