Hello,

You need to consult your family doctor immediately. Based on the history given you seem to be suffering from tremors. You need to be examined by your family doctor to rule out the possibilities of certain neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, or other causes.


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

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
