🤔 What exactly is Parkinson's Disease? Today, we're diving into this common neurological disorder that often begins subtly and progresses over time.

Understanding the Symptoms:

-Tremor (Shaking): Often the first noticeable sign, usually in one hand or finger.
-Slowed Movement (Bradykinesia): Everyday tasks become more time-consuming and difficult.
- Rigidity (Muscle Stiffness): Limiting your range of motion, causing pain and discomfort.
- Postural Instability: Leading to balance issues and increased risk of falls.

Early Signs (Often Overlooked):

- Small Handwriting Changes: Your writing gets smaller and more cramped.
- Loss of Smell: Trouble identifying familiar scents.
- Sleep Disturbances: Vivid dreams, thrashing around, or talking in your sleep.
- Voice Changes: Becoming softer or hoarser.

Causes & Risk Factors (We're Still Learning!)

- Genetics: A small percentage of cases are linked to family history.
- Environment: Exposure to certain toxins or chemicals may play a role.
- Age: Most people develop it around age 60 or older.
- Gender: Men are slightly more likely to get Parkinson's.

Important Note: These signs don't automatically mean you have Parkinson's. See a doctor for a proper diagnosis!
