Brief Answer:
Get prescription from a neurologist for essential tremors
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Only tremors in hands may be essential tremors.
You can try clonazepam or primidone.
The dose needs to be increased gradually as required.
Exercise has no effective benefits in essential tremors.
You can get a prescription after consulting a neurologist.
Investigations may be required to look for other causes.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back to me for further queries.
