Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's disease is a neurological condition that affects the nervous system, causing movement issues such as tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. It typically develops in people over the age of 60, but about 5-10% of cases are early onset, with symptoms appearing before the age of 50. As the disease progresses, everyday skills like talking and walking may become challenging. This page provides information on the symptoms, causes, and progression of Parkinson's disease, as well as available treatment options and support resources for those living with the condition.
