Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's disease is a disorder that affects a part of the nervous system which is responsible for movement. There is no cure for this disease, but various treatments can ease the symptoms and improve the life of patients with Parkinson's disease. At the early stages, Parkinson's disease causes just a tremor in hands or slower movements. As the disease gradually progresses, the symptoms may include more difficulties with movements, tremors, stiffness of the muscles, muscle cramps, pain in the muscles and joints, difficulties with keeping balance, limited facial expressions, chewing and swallowing difficulties, speech impairment, dementia, sleeping disorders, problems with urination, fatigue, drowsiness, and reduced sexual ability.

Standard medical treatment for Parkinson's disease may involve medications, physical therapy or surgery. The most commonly used medication for Parkinson's disease is Levodopa. This medication and other drugs which are used in treatment can help you deal with the symptoms. Physical therapy will help you with muscle stiffness and it will increase your strength. Surgery is recommended in most severe cases of Parkinson's disease.
