Question

What’s causing the most severe hand tremors?

Answer

Hand tremors can be categorized into physiological and pathological types. Physiological hand tremors are characterized by small amplitude and rapid movement, often occurring when at rest and are described as tiny, rapid, and irregular vibrations. They commonly occur during situations of stress, fear, emotional excitement, severe pain, or extreme fatigue. Once the cause of the tremors is completely eliminated, the tremors will disappear as well. Pathological hand tremors, also known as “tremor” in medical terms, refer to involuntary hand shaking that is often permanent. It is recommended to undergo further detailed examination.
