Question
What’s going on with a 10-year-old child suddenly shaking their head? After not taking a nap, they shake their head occasionally. They have never been treated for it and want to know how to stop the shaking. They are conscious of the action but cannot control it, and are worried it might be Parkinson’s disease.
Answer
It is recommended to consult a neurology department for examination and treatment to rule out multiple tremors and Parkinson’s disease. Patients who start appropriate treatment in the early stages of the disease can usually slow down the progression of the illness, maintain relative stability, and live independently. Wishing you health!
