Thank you for asking!
The tremors need to be a bit worked up on and correlated clinically. there is a paralysis history. anxiety depression can cause that too.also thyroid functions need to be assessed. it is too early to comment on the cause of this tremor. could be basal ganglia , could be hormonal or could be anxiety. need work up and correlation.get some.
