6. Parkinson’s Disease

While not every person with Parkinson’s disease develops a Parkinsonian tremor, it is one of the condition’s most common symptoms. Usually, the tremor manifests as shaking in the hands while the individual is at rest, though the symptom may also affect the legs and face. Stress or strong emotions can worsen it. If the tremor begins on one side of the body, it may spread to other areas as the disease progresses.
