Is essential tremor harmful to health?

The harm of essential tremor depends on the degree. If it is only a slight shaking of hands and lips, it will not affect the ability to eat, walk and daily life, and there is no harm. If the patient's trembling symptoms get worse, for example, he can't take chopsticks, and even when he takes a spoon to send food to his mouth, he can't send it to his mouth, and his teeth collide, which affects eating. If the limbs shake, which affects carrying things and walking, then it affects the ability of daily life, and the harm is even greater at this time. Some people suffer from chronic malnutrition, which may lead to other symptoms. In this case, you must go to the hospital for anti-tremor drug adjustment and treatment. There are two commonly used drugs for the treatment of primary tremor, namely, 1 and trihexyphenidyl, which can be gradually increased from half a tablet twice a day, such as 1 tablet twice a day and 1 tablet three times a day. When the dosage is large, it can be added to two tablets of 65438. After taking this medicine, you need to observe the side effects. Diphenhydramine has a good effect on tremor control, but it can cause cognitive decline, aggravate prostate hypertrophy and lead to visual changes. Therefore, patients taking trihexyphenidyl need to come to the hospital regularly to monitor the side effects and let the doctor adjust the dose; 2, arolol, generally starting from half a tablet, can also be gradually increased according to symptoms. Pay attention to the observation of blood pressure and heart rate during medication, because drugs will affect blood pressure and heart rate in addition to anti-tremor, so it needs to be adjusted.
