A member asked:

Can there be a problem in the neck that can be causing body tremors?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: Tremors can be secondary to genetics, medication side effects, alcohol/nutritional issues, parkinson's disease and other movement disorders, hyperthyroidism, etc. The neck may be involved secondarily in some of these condiitions but does not cause any of them.

Dr Fowler and another doctor agreed
