Patient's question:
At birth, the umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck. The doctor said there was slightly low oxygen to the brain. The next day, I visited a neonatal doctor who said everything was fine. Later, CT and echocardiogram showed no issues. Now, at 4 months and 20 days, she occasionally has slight hand tremors when excited. Could it be a disease? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be Parkinson's syndrome. Parkinson's disease, also known as tremor paralysis, is the most common central nervous system degenerative disease among middle-aged and elderly people. Tremor refers to the shaking or trembling of the head and limbs, while paralysis refers to the inability to move certain parts or all limbs voluntarily. It is related to the lack of dopamine in the brain's substantia nigra. It is recommended to use levodopa for treatment.
