Common questions about Parkinson's Disease treatments at Raj Hospital
Parkinson's itself is not fatal, but disease complications can be serious. With current treatments, most patients can maintain a good quality of life for many years.
No, tremors can be caused by various conditions such as Essential Tremor. It is crucial to get evaluated by a neurologist for an accurate diagnosis.
Diet cannot cure Parkinson's, but a balanced, high-fibre diet with enough fluids helps constipation, and some people taking levodopa benefit from taking it 30 to 60 minutes before protein-rich meals because protein can reduce its absorption. Discuss diet changes with your neurologist.
DBS is a complex surgical procedure where precisely targeted electrodes are implanted tightly into the brain. It acts similarly to a pacemaker, overriding abnormal movement signals.
The rate of symptomatic progression heavily varies between distinct individuals. Medicines control symptoms, and regular exercise and early physiotherapy help maintain mobility; no treatment has yet been proven to slow the underlying disease.
