Nov 10, 2023

Senior Health Care Hub has released a guide covering symptoms, treatments, and coping strategies for individuals suffering from Parkinson's disease and their caregivers.

The recently published guide offers well-researched information and insight to seniors and their caregivers, helping them understand, manage, and live with Parkinson's disease. The report is intended to create awareness of early signs and physical as well as mental aspects of being diagnosed with the disease.

As the risk of developing Parkison's disease increases with age, Senior Health Care Hub wants to educate its readers with essential information about the disease. The newly available guide empowers seniors to take proactive measures to prevent and slow down the progression of the condition.

According to the Parkinson's Foundation, the disease is more common than previously estimated, with a 2022 study showing that nearly 90,000 individuals in the US are diagnosed every year. This number represents a 50% increase from the previous estimate of 60,000 new cases annually from 1978. Their study also highlights that age is the single biggest risk factor, with a majority of patients being diagnosed after 65.

Senior Health Care Hub's guide points out that early detection is crucial when it comes to taking preventative measures to be able to de-escalate the progression of Parkinson's. The expert divides the symptoms into two groups: motor and non-motor. Common early motor symptoms are slight tremors in one hand and stiffness, whereas non-motor symptoms can be harder to pinpoint and include depression, sleep problems, and constipation.

The guide also covers the diagnosis process, the surgical and non-surgical treatments available, the importance of physical therapy and maintaining mobility, as well as the lifestyle choices that can halt the development of the disease. Senior Health Care Hub emphasizes the importance of mental health, encouraging individuals to seek professional help and join support groups to manage non-motor symptoms.
