How to deal with tremors

-

For non-medical tremors, doctors advise managing stress, avoiding caffeine, stimulants and alcohol, and maintainin­g a healthy lifestyle.

Physiother­apy can also help build strength, coordinati­on and aid muscle control, which can be

useful when managing the condition. Tremors caused by medical conditions, for example

an overactive thyroid, can be treated with the appropriat­e medication. Otherwise your doctor may prescribe medication such as betablocke­rs, anti-seizure medication, tranquilli­sers or even Botox injections. In severe cases, ultrasound treatment or brain surgery might be

advised.
