3.Tremors
Your hands can shake for many reasons at any age, but it’s more common after 50. Some medicines — like mood stabilizers and drugs that treat seizures or migraines — can cause it or make it worse. Anxiety, stress, low blood sugar, being tired, or having too much caffeine can, too. An “active” tremor happens when you try to use your hands. A “passive” tremor happens when your hands are at rest.
4.Tremors: Treatment
While it may bother you, an active tremor is usually harmless. Changes in diet and lifestyle can help — drinking less caffeine, for example. But a passive tremor can be a sign of a serious problem, including a tumor or a brain disease, such as Parkinson’s. See your doctor right away if you have these kinds of tremors.
