Hi,

There are many causes of tremors, what your days very likely are " Essential tremors".

These are not serious. Fifty percent people have POSTIVE family history of such tremors.

Though it cannot be cured, Yes there are certain drugs that can help these tremors. Beta blockers like Inderal may be quite effective.

Though it's very likely to be essential tremors still we need a full history and examination to rule out other causes like Wilson or other rain disorders which are unlikely to be your case.

You may see your neurologist for best management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
