What Causes Essential Tremors With Tingling Sensation In Hands?

People have been noticing that I have head tremors quite often and I am concerned about it...I am 51 years of age....I also have one thumb on the left hand that gets tingly like its asleep and goes all the way up my arm....Like pins and needles....i cannot lift that shoulder high or touch my back with that arm......My memory has been poor, but I have been told that because I am 51 that comes with age...Any advice would be greatly appreciated....Thank You Patricia

Hi,

* As per my clinical experience, the essential tremors with tingling sensation in hands can be related to

- Parkinsonian disease
- Vitamin B 12 deficiency
- Early dementia or Lewy body dementia
- Others

* In my clinic, after thorough clinical examination, I do recommend an MRI brain for further assistance in this regard.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
