Old ages are higher risk of developing Parkinson's Disease

Men appear to be at greater risk of developing Parkinson's Disease than women. At present there is no cure for the disease. The symptoms of parkinsons disease is difficulties in walking, uncontrollable shaking of our hand and body and sometimes leads to other symptoms, such as depression or anxiety, problems with chewing and swallowing, and speech changes. Some people may have problems with urination or constipation. Others may have trouble sleeping or problems with skin that is too oily or too dry.

The cause for developing the Parkinson's disease is the widespread damage of the dopamine-producing cells in a person's brain. Long shot of drug called levodopa is used for the disease and it is so effective that many patients forgot they are suffering from the disease as they continue to lead their lives as normal.
