A member asked:
When i hold my non-dominant hand out, i have a very slight tremor. but its still at rest or holding something. or if i exert my muscles on that side (like lifting something), they rhythmically shake a little. could this be neurological?

Yes, it certainly is. You may have heredofamilial essential tremor, but if strictly one-sided solely, then there could be a problem involving brain. See a neurologist, get the diagnosis confirmed, and get appropriate intervention.
