Arm and Hand Tremors
Hello! I have a question regarding the tremors in my right hand and arm. Is there anything I can do or take to alleviate the shaking and tingling when I have the tremors? My doctor isn’t very helpful, she tells me to exercise the arm/hand and to be sure I use it-which I do, however, I get no results from doing so. I am a right handed person and I can hardly write or print anymore let alone try to lift or carry anything. Any and all advice is appreciated!!

Hi
. Unfortunately, there is not a lot you can do about tremors beyond gentle stretches, exercises and reducing the stressors that might be making your symptoms worse. I wish I had better news. You are far from alone in your frustration though. Here is an article from one of our advocates about her experiences with tremors. https://multiplesclerosis.net/living-with-ms/tremors-and-shakes You'll see that it generated several comments from people going through the same thing. I hope they diminish over time. Sending lots of gentle hugs your way. - Lori (Team Member)
