A member asked:
I have severe shaking in my hand, but i can stop it when i realize i am doing it, what is that called medically? type of tremor or something else
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is a tremor: Many types of tremors exist, with some being more controllable than others. As a young woman, especially with it involving only one hand, i would recommend getting a good history taken and an exam. Some serious problems can cause tremor as an early finding.
