Hello. Thank you for posting.
Parkinson's is a disorder of the central nervous system that affects movement, often including tremors. Nerve cell damage in the brain causes dopamine levels to drop, leading to the symptoms of Parkinson's. Parkinson's often starts with a tremor in one hand. Other symptoms are slow movement, stiffness, and loss of balance. If you suspect this, he should be evaluated by a doctor. Medications can help control the symptoms of Parkinson's, but there is no cure.
