What Is the Treatment for Hand Tremors?

Arm vibration disease is a disease mainly caused by hand peripheral circulation and / or arm nerve dysfunction caused by long-term hand-borne vibration operations, and can cause damage to the joints and muscles of the arms. Most of the affected areas are at the ends of the upper extremities, which typically manifest as paroxysmal fingers turning white.

Operate the hammer tool. Such as operation

Control the vibration source. Vibration reduction measures should be adopted in the design and manufacture of production tools and machinery to reduce vibration to a level that is harmless to the human body.

Reform the process and adopt measures such as vibration reduction and vibration isolation. For example, new technology such as welding is used instead of riveting technology; hydraulic sand cleaning is used instead of air shovel sand cleaning; metal parts of tools are made of plastic or rubber materials to reduce impact vibration.

Limit operating time and vibration intensity.

Improve working environment, strengthen personal protection and health monitoring.

Has a long professional history of hand-borne vibration operations, the main cause of arm vibration disease

Have a long-term professional history of hand-borne vibration operations, symptoms of hand numbness, hand swelling, hand pain, palm sweating, arm weakness and joint pain, and have one of the following manifestations:

a) Cold water rewarming test for hand prolonged rewarming time or reduced rewarming rate

b) Decreased fingertip vibration and finger pain

Arm vibration disease treatment principles

Comprehensive treatment according to the condition. Application of vasodilator and nutritional nerve drug treatment, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be combined with physical therapy, exercise therapy, etc. Perform surgical treatment if necessary.

Strengthen personal protection and keep your hands and body warm.

Other treatment of arm vibration disease

Observation objects generally do not need to be tuned away from vibration operations, but should be re-examined once a year to closely observe changes in the condition.

Mild arm vibrations should be adjusted away from contact with hand-borne vibrations, and appropriate treatment should be performed, and other tasks should be arranged according to the situation.

Moderate arm vibration disease and severe arm vibration disease must be tuned away from vibration operations and actively treated. If labor capacity appraisal is needed, refer to relevant provisions of GB / T16180.
