A member asked:
Can an essential tremor cause tremor in your hands, toes and on face too or is it just hands?

Essential tremors are action tremors that can happen both sides, but also one side. They do include the hands, arms, head, and voice

Typically, heredofamilial essential tremor causes bilateral shaking when holding hands, or feet, upwards, against gravity. The head shaking is a "no-no" tremor. Other tremors exist, and often need neurological attention.
