Besides tremors, what are other symptoms of essential tremor?
Essential tremor is just tremor. The essential part means that there isn’t another underlying neurological problem causing the tremor. So, in people with essential tremor, we usually see just that, tremor. Now, some people with essential tremor may have some instability of gait, or a sense of unsteadiness while walking. Typically, essential tremor is just shaking, again most often of the hands. Sometimes it involves the head. It may involve the voice. It rarely, or infrequently, involves the legs. Otherwise, there aren’t other associated neurological phenomena associated with essential tremor.
