I am a 13 year old girl and i've noticed since around the beginning of the year my hands always shake a lot after I carry a heavy object in one hand (mainly heavy shopping bags). I notice that my right hand shakes more because I mainly use that one but I can not stop it from shaking for about an 30 min to an hour and the ore I tense it the more it shakes. Why is this?

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. You should speak with your doctor if you experience hand tremors. Many people associate shaky hands with parkinson's disease. But according to the cleveland clinic, the most common cause of shaking hands is actually essential tremor. Essential tremor most commonly affects adults, but it's not well understood. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
