What Causes Continuous Trembling Hands And Head Amongst Most Of The Family Members?

There r 5 family members that have some form of trebling hands and head some of us more than others. The doctors say it is not life threatening. However, it seems to be continuous and more problems when hands shake rapidly. Can you give more insight to this?

Dear User,
Thanks for using health care magic.

From the available description it appears that there is some hereditary problem. If all family members are middle age than there may be essential tremor.
The another possibility is some thyroid disorder.
It needs to be investigated properly.
I request you to post with full history of all family members.

'Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help".
Thanks
