Parkinson’s disease is a brain disorder that causes coordination issues, including tremors and speech impediments. A person may have all or only some of the symptoms associated with Parkinson’s.
Parkinson’s disease can cause varying and progressive symptoms throughout its course. Some of the most common symptoms associated with the disease include:
Difficulty showing facial expressions
Muscle stiffness
Slowed, affected movements
Speech changes
Tremor, especially of one hand
A person with Parkinsonism may have some, but not all, of the symptoms listed above. This is because they also have an additional disorder that affects the brain’s functioning.
It is very common for people to focus on the physical or motor symptoms of Parkinson’s. However, there are several non-motor symptoms associated with the disease, as well.
Non-motor symptoms include:
problems with smell
anxiety
depression
vision problems
fatigue
cognitive changes, such as memory loss or slow thinking
insomnia
problems with speech
constipation
difficulty swallowing
It is usual for the symptoms of Parkinson’s to be only slightly bothersome or uncomfortable initially but to get more severe as the disease advances.
