Tremor
- Stress reduction can sometimes help to reduce tremors. For more information, see the topic Stress Management.
- Add a little weight to your hand by wearing a heavy bracelet or watch or holding something in your hand. This may reduce some tremors and restore more control to your hands.
- Drink beverages from half-filled cups or glasses, and use a straw.
- Get enough rest and sleep. Fatigue often makes a tremor worse.
- Reduce your caffeine intake.
