Risk factors of an essential tremor
If a person is over the age of 40, they are more likely to acquire essential tremor.
Risk can be impacted by genetics. Despite the possibility of inheritance, essential tremor can sometimes strike individuals without a family history of the disorder.
Familial tremor is a term used to describe the condition when there is a history of essential tremor. If you already have essential tremor and your child does not, there is a 50% risk that they will also get it.
