Do your hands shake?

I have always has this annoying problem, if my hand is not resting on a table or something, it is always shaking. For example, if I am drinking something and I am holding the cup, my hand shakes, if I am pouring water into my cup, my hands shake. Or if I just life my hand off a table it shakes.

 

Anyone else have this problem, or know how to fix it? Its not a medical problem because it has been like this pretty much my whole life.

Are you a drinker?

 

Drink less, and also don't consume so much caffeine. See if that helps.

 

Could be a lot of things. Could be your thyroid, could be essential tremor (although I think that happens more when you're working your hands), could be anxiety.

Doesn't Muhmamad Ali have something like this? I forgot what it's called. :(

Parkinson's disease (as Andre said).

 

But that's uncommon in younger people, I believe. I've never met anyone under 40 with Parkinson's.

You gotta be old to have Parkinsons. I don't drink much caffeine, pretty much only at a party or a restaurant.

 

They don't shake all over the place, its just a minor shake that you gotta be close to see.
