[|Human|] I have been told for the first time, that in the last few days they have seen head movements when I am talking. Not every time, but sometimes and it is slight back and forth. I do not realize this is happening. I am a 65 year old female in good health. My dad, 93yrs old, has essential tremors when he tries to write. What is going on?
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have head movements while talking. Well many people with dystonia experience head shake especially if the dystonia is affecting their neck. Head tremor can be due to a condition called essential tremor or due to dystonia and in that case the tremor is labeled dystonia tremor. I would suggest you to consult neurologist for proper examination. Doctor will examine physically. Doctor may prescribe medicines like carcinoma levodopa, trihexyphenidyl, Genotropin or diazepam which act on neurotransmitters like dopamine. Doctor may also recommend physical therapy or speech therapy. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
