What Is The Long Term Effect Of Tremors In Right Arm And Hand?
My 13 yo daughter has recently started having tremors in her right arm and hand. She has had a ct and blood work done that was normal. She mostly notices it when she is stressed or nervous about something. She is very active and is playing basketball now. Should we be overly concerned?

Hello,
It sounds like she has something called essential tremor. This is quite common. I would make sure that she sees a neurologist at least once to make sure that they do not think it is anything more serious.
Regards
