The cause of Parkinson's disease are due to our loss of brain cells

Sign and symptoms of a person with Parkinson disease can be not the same from a person to a person. Some person who develop Parkinson may have tremor as an early symptoms while some people may have balance problems. Age people above 65 are at high risk of develop Parkinson's disease as the muscle and the body systems are getting weak. People with Parkinson's disease develop stiffness, tremors and slow movement that can become worse over time.

The cause of Parkinson's disease are due to our loss of brain cells that produce a kind of chemical called dopamine. Dopamine is a like passenger boy in our brain that pass message from one brain to another. People with Parkinson's disease who are exposed to more of these Neurotoxins are likely to develop Parkinson;s disease.

Most of the early symptoms of Parkinson's disease are tremor which affects your whole body system to shake. The shaking always start in the hand first and slowly it will affects your legs, arms and even the heads and jaws. Your movement became slow. You will fell difficult in waking due to the stiffness of our limbs. Changes of your speech as you will notice your speech became soft. Problems of turning your head and body.

The symptoms of Parkinson disease are first to be notice are tremor

The symptoms of Parkinson disease vary from each individual person and the stages that the patients experience. Parkinson diseases is a movement disorder cause by the shortage chemical transmitter in the brain. This cause by the loss of brain cell that produce a chemical called dopamine which result in passing messages from our brain to the muscles. People who are above sixty years of age are prone to the disease but the percentage is not very high. Parkinson disease are said to be inherited from family members. Others causes of Parkinson is the toxins in the environment that we are living in.

The symptoms of Parkinson disease are first to be notice are tremor in our hands, arms, legs or even heads. it will start in one side and later moved to both sides of the body. You will find movement very hard when you want to get up from your chair or moving to another side of the beds because your affected body ,arms and leg find it hard to move. others main symptoms are finding problems with balancing or walking, having stiff muscles and find movement very slow.

The doctor will diagnosed by asking you with question about your family history and the symptoms you are experience at the present. The doctor then will watch your movement and check your muscles strength and reflexes and also check your vision. The doctor will described a kinds of medicine for you to take with could control the symptoms and make the diseases to live with. The medicine most used are called Levodopa as is the best drug of controlling symptoms of Parkinson disease.

Treatment of Parkinsons Disease

Parkinsons Disease is a neuromuscular condition and is cause by the changes in the basal ganglia of the brain result in slowing and weakening of voluntary movement, including those expressing emotion. At present it is said to have no complete cure despite many ongoing research. Medication to parkinsons patients depents on the amount of disruption the symptoms cause on the patients. The most effective treatment for parkinson disease patients is by a long shot is a drug called levodopa and is only effective in helping rigidity and bradykinesiabut is not so effective in helping patients with tremor or balance problems. Others medication used for treating Parkinsons disease include Coenzyme Q10, amantadine, anticholigernics, COMT inhibitors, selegiline, dopamine agonists,and carbidopa.

Physical therapy is necessary because it enables the patient to retain his mobility and control over his muscles in spite of the usual tremors and other physical symptoms of parkinsons disease.

Parkison's disease are associated with old age people

Parkison's disease are associated with old age people and are said that this disease are brought down from relatives who had parkinsonian symptoms, it is suggested that a genetic factor may be involved. Parkinson's disease as most people refer as movement disorder. As peoples with this parkison's disease find themselves having trouble in walking and hand are very shaky. At present there is no cure for parkinson's disease patients and only drugs are used to control parkinson's disease.

The cause of parkinson's disease are old age, genetic factors,staying in a toxins enviroment, Trauma and carbon monoxide poisoning. The common symptoms and signs of parkinsons disease are having emotional and depression chandes. finding oneselves hard in swallowing, chewing and speaking. Others common causes are having urinary problems, Trembling of hands, legs and jaws. Having skin and sleep problems. Besides drug used to control parkinson's disease a kind of nutrition has been used in clinical study. This is widely used by parkinson patients to slow down its deterioration or partially treatment. Physical therapy can help strengthen and tone underused muscles, and give rigid muscles a better range of motion.

The youngest patients diagnoses with parkinson disease is 23 years old.

The condition in diagnosed of Parkinson's disease by the appearance of motor symptoms, which include resting tremor, muscular rigidity, stooped posture and slowness or difficulty in movement. Other non- motor symptoms like sweating, facials flushing, pain and fatique may also be present. Most of the symptoms of parkinson;s disease are due to deficiency of dopamine caused by the loss of dopamine producing cells in the brains.

Parkinson's disease despite slowing down the patients with proper treatment can enjoy a good quality of life and perform tasks, drive and also playing game. While parkinsom's disease mostly effects the early people, people who is mostly above sixty years of age.About five percentage of people above age of forty and above are diagnoses with parkinson disease. The youngest patients diagnoses with parkinson disease in Malaysia is 23 years old.

Parkinson's disease is not symptomatic of the aging process

Parkinson's disease is not symptomatic of the aging process. Under recognition or under diagnosis of the symptoms of parkinson's disease (PD) is hampering early identification and treatment of the disease. This is due to the major symptoms of the disease, slowness of movement, trembling of the hands and body stiffness, being taken for sign of sging. It is pity that symptom of PD are easily mistaken for signs of aging as the disease is easily treatable with availability of very effective medications that will enable patients to enjoy an extent quality life.

Under diagnosis was also compounded by the difficulty in diagnosising PD due to its non specific and subtle early symptoms, which are often mistaken for drepression. PD is a chronic, progression disorder of the nervous system, which cause increasing and devastating disability over time.

Parkinson disease affects the movement of the body

Parkinson disease affects the movement of the body and the symptom always begins on one side of our body and later it will affect the other side of our body. It is a degenerative disorder of the central of our nervous which occur when our nerve cells in area of our brain known as subtantia nigra die or become impaired. Parkinson disease most people preffer as old age disease as it always begins around the age of sixty and its affect men more than women.


The symptoms of parkinson disease include disorders of mood, behavior, thinking, and sensation. Other symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease are Shaking (muscle tremor), it is mostly the first symptons Parkinson's disease. Poor balance due to the impairment or loss of the reflexes that adjust posture in order to maintain balance. Parkinson's disease patient needs daily exercises, good food nutrition and medication. Medication can help patients manage walking problem. It is advisabe not to leave the patients alone most of the time as it needs support. It is encourage to joint support groups service where most of the PD patients and peoples to help with the daily exercises.

Stem cells therapies to treat Parkinson.s disease 2

Adults stem cell can be isolated from bone marrow, the liver, muscle, the brain, fat and other tissues. These cell can provide fewer different types od differentiated cells. Though so far stem cells have not cure any condition, doctors have successfully used them in blood and marrow transplants for more than thirty years. These transplants are used in the treatments of leukaemai and lymphoma to sustain life after chemotherapy and radition.

Experimentally they are used to replaced a defective immune systems in some inherited immune disorders, and to replace an immune system turned against itself, such as in some autoimmune disorders.

In future stem cells might be used to replace disease cells. If stem cells could be directed differentiate into specific cell types, they could treat Parkinson's disease, spinal cords injuries, burns, Alzheimer's arthritis, disorders of bone development and other conditions.

Stem cells therapies to treat Parkinson.s disease

Stem-cell research is a new frontier in medicine. REsearchers are seeking ways to create stem-cell based therapies to treat or cure illnesses such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's, diabetes, heart disease and spinal cord injuries. But the real world application, if they occur are years away.

Stem cells are difference from other cells in the body. When most cells divide, they produce two identical dauther cells, not so with stem cells, Some stem cells become specialised for example cells of the skin or heart muscle and some remains stem cells, replenishing the stem cell pool. Because some stem cells change into specialised cells, researchers believe they may be useful in repairing tissues damaged by disease, aging or injury. Sten cells are not all the same. Different stem cells can be derived from embryos, umbilical- cord blood and the plancenta and adult tissues.

Embryonic stem cells come from human eggs fertilised in vitro out of the body as part of infertility treatment. Some Embroyos may remains after a women become pregnant, and are provided for research with the concent of the donors. Embryonic stem cells can differentiate into any type of cell in the body.
