summary

Parkinson's disease is a sudden and slowly progressive degenerative disease of the central nervous system. It is characterized by slow and missing movement, muscle rigidity, static tremor and postural instability. In order to prevent this situation, let me introduce how Parkinson's disease is caused.

How is Parkinson's disease caused

First: family heredity: after some experts' long-term follow-up investigation, it seems that Parkinson's disease seems to have family aggregation tendency. The incidence rate of relatives of Parkinson's disease patients is higher than that of the normal population.

Second: environmental factors: according to some statistical data of experts, there are certain regional differences in the incidence of Parkinson's disease. This phenomenon makes people suspect that there may be some toxic substances in the environment that damage the neurons of the brain.

Third: genetic susceptibility: Although the occurrence of Parkinson's disease is mainly related to the aging of environment and age, not all elderly people or people exposed to the same environment, or even people who also take a large amount of MPTP will develop Parkinson's disease. The etiology of Parkinson's disease is that although Parkinson's disease patients also have family clustering phenomenon, no clear pathogenic gene has been found in sporadic Parkinson's disease patients, indicating that the etiology of Parkinson's disease is multifactorial.

matters needing attention

There are many factors leading to the occurrence of Parkinson's disease in our life. The above are the main ones, but no matter what factors are caused, patients should be treated in time according to their own conditions.
