What is Parkinson’s disease?

Parkinson’s disease is a movement disorder affecting the nervous system that worsens over time. It begins gradually and the patient may experience a slight tremor in one hand or stiffness in one part of the body. These symptoms worsen as the disease progresses and may be accompanied by dementia

What are the causes of Parkinson’s disease?

While the exact cause of Parkinson’s disease is unknown, it has been associated with the following factors:

Low dopamine levels: Low dopamine levels are linked with Parkinson’s disease, and the symptoms worsen as the levels fall.
Genetic factors: While it is not always hereditary, a strong family history of Parkinson’s disease may increase the risk of developing it.
Lewy bodies: These are clumps of protein in the brain which may be signs of Parkinson’s disease.
Autoimmune factors: People with autoimmune rheumatoid diseases (ARD) have a higher chance of developing arthritis than those without ARD.
Environmental triggers: Exposure to specific toxins and other environmental factors may increase the chance of developing Parkinson’s.

What are the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease?

Parkinson’s disease symptoms vary among patients. Often, symptoms may begin on one side of the body and worsen there even after the symptoms begin to affect both sides. Some of the signs and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are:

Tremor
Loss of involuntary movements
Gait disturbance or loss of balance
Loss of sense of smell
Sleeping problems
Changes in speech
Changes in handwriting (may arise due to focal dystonia)

Treatment is generally more effective in the early stages of Parkinson’s. It is essential to seek medical help if a person notices any symptoms of the condition. This can help to not only confirm the diagnosis but also rule out any other causes for the symptoms.

Types of Parkinson’s disease

Parkinsonism refers to a group of neurological conditions that display symptoms similar to Parkinson’s disease. Parkinsonism may be categorized as:

Primary parkinsonism: Most of the Parkinson’s disease patients have primary parkinsonism, which has no known cause. They respond well to drugs that substitute or increase dopamine molecules in the brain.
Secondary parkinsonism:The remaining types fall under this category and do not respond well to dopaminergic drugs. It includes drug-induced parkinsonism, vascular parkinsonism, multiple system atrophy (MSA, a neurodegenerative disorder), etc.

How is Parkinson’s disease diagnosed?

There are no specific tests to diagnose Parkinson’s disease. A neurologist will diagnose the condition through a thorough evaluation of the patient’s medical and family history, signs and symptoms, and neurological and physical examination. He may also recommend the following:

Dopamine Transporter (DAT) scan: to support the diagnosis.
Blood tests: to rule out the suspicion of other causes for the symptoms.
Imaging tests: to rule out the suspicion of other conditions
Parkinson’s disease medication: Improvement after taking a sufficient dose may confirm the diagnosis.

Diagnosis of the condition may require time and follow-up visits with the neurologist who can evaluate the signs and symptoms over time.
