[Tremors].
Tremor can present a diagnostic problem in family practise. Systematic analysis of this symptom allows rapid classification of the problem without use of rigid definitions. Unilateral or very asymmetric tremor that disappears at the onset of a movement is for example a typical sign for parkinsonism without analysis and differentiation between tremor at rest or position-dependent tremor. Also one may assume, that a symmetric tremor that aggravates during standing or movement in most cases is essential and not of cerebellar origin. Different forms of tremor and their therapies and main tremor types are presented graphically.
