A member asked:
I'm 17 and my hands/fingers shake all the time, especially when holding things and trying to keep my hand straight. why?

Tough to say: "tremors" and shaking can be a benign (not serious) condition you can inherit form family members, or can be something more serious, so best to get your "shaking" evaluated by a neurologist. Best wishes.
