Not always.
Parkinson’s Disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, balance, and posture. Because it develops gradually, the early signs are often mistaken for normal aging.
Watch for:
Resting hand tremor
Slowness of movement (Bradykinesia)
Shuffling gait with short steps
Reduced arm swing while walking
Stooped posture or forward-leaning trunk
Muscle stiffness (Rigidity)
Reduced facial expression (“Mask-like” face)
These changes are NOT always a normal part of aging.
Early recognition can help individuals seek timely medical care and rehabilitation.
