My hands have always shaken.never while just resting but always when in motion of any kind.can you have a tremor ever since you were born?

Tremors that last: There are many types of tremors. Some are what we call "physiologic" which means they are normal, while others are pathological, representing some underlying disease. Young people can have more of these as they have higher muscle tone that often causes more noticeable tremors. Basic lab studies including thyroid, B12 and vitamin e levels should be tested.
