Parkinson's & Movement Disorders
Parkinson’s disease affects the nerve cells in the brain that fall in dopamine levels of the brain. The symptoms of PD develop gradually. They often start with a slight tremor in one hand and a feeling of stiffness in the body. Parkinson’s disease symptoms include muscle rigidity, tremors, and changes in speech and gait. After diagnosis at Best Neurology Hospital in Hyderabad, treatments can help relieve symptoms, but there is no cure.

Other Movement Disorders:
-
Atypical parkinsonian disorders: They are progressive infections that have a portion of similar indications (slowness, tremor and stiffness) as Parkinson's disease. They regularly have extra manifestations that are not normal in Parkinson's and may not react well to Parkinson's meds
-
Huntington's disease: It is an inherited problem that causes brain cells known as neurons, to pass on in different areas of the brain, which thusly leads to disability that deteriorates overtime.
-
Essential tremor: is another issue that can make an individual's arms shake rhythmically when the arms are being utilized to carry out a function like eating, dressing, writing, drinking or when holding a posture, for example, with the arms outstretched before the body.
-
Ataxia: It all dues to uncoordinated development because of a muscle control issue that leads to inability to coordinate movements. Individuals influenced by Ataxia might encounter issues with utilizing their fingers and hands, arms, legs, walking, talking or moving their eyes
-
Tic disorders: These are described by abrupt jerks, movements or sounds that individuals do over and again.
-
Functional movement disorders: These allude to strange involuntary developments that are brought about by an issue with how signals are sent through the brain.
-
Dystonia: It is a problem described by involuntary muscle constrictions that cause slow monotonous movements or unusual stances. A few people with dystonia may have a tremor or other neurologic features
Signs and Symptoms of Parkinson's and Other Movement Disorders
-
Tremor or the involuntary and rhythmic movements of the hands, arms, legs and jaw.
-
Muscle rigidity or stiffness of the limbs – most common in the arms, shoulders or neck.
-
Gradual loss of spontaneous movement, which often leads to decreased mental skill or reaction time, voice changes, decreased facial expression, etc.
-
Gradual loss of automatic movement, which may lead to decreased blinking, decreased frequency of swallowing and drooling.
-
A stooped, flexed posture with bending at the elbows, knees and hips.
-
Unsteady walk or balance.

Depression or dementia.
Treatment:
Parkinson's disease can't be cured, but medications can help control your symptoms, often dramatically. In some later cases, surgery may be advised by Parkinson's Disease Doctors in Hyderabad. some research studies have shown that some lifelong habits may help to reduce the risk.
-
Turmeric: This spice contains curcumin, an antioxidant ingredient. It may help to prevent the clumping of a protein involved in Parkinson's disease, at least one laboratory study has found.
-
Flavonoids: Consuming another type of antioxidant — flavonoids — may lower the risk of developing Parkinson's disease, according to research. Flavonoids are present in berries, apples, some vegetables, tea, and red grapes.
-
Avoiding reheated cooking oils: Scientists have linked toxic chemicals, known as aldehydes, to Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases, and some cancers.
-
Heating certain oils — such as sunflower oil — to a certain temperature, and then using them again can cause aldehydes to occur in those oils.
-
Avoiding toxins: Exposure to herbicides, pesticides, and other toxins may increase the risk of neurological diseases such as PD. People should take precautions when using these types of product, for example, by using protective clothing.
