Unilateral Resting Tremor in a Thigh Muscle in Parkinson’s Disease

Open Access
|Oct 2020

Figures & Tables

Video 1

Tremor at rest appeared in his right thigh when he lay down with a semi-supine position. There is a tiny tremulous movement in the left leg, but this was not primary and was transmitted from the right leg movement.

Video 2

Resting tremor in the left proximal thigh, especially hamstring muscle, appeared when she was sitting cross-legged and got worse with the distraction. The left great toe movement was not a tremor, and it was just transmitted from the body oscillation provoked by the right proximal leg tremor.

Video 3

The resting tremor was provoked in her left thigh while she was sitting cross-legged.
