Parkinson's Disease
What is Parkinson’s Disease?
Parkinson’s Disease (PD), also known as Parkinson Disease, PD, or simply Parkinson’s, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects movement control. Named after the British physician James Parkinson, who first described the condition in 1817 as “Shaking Palsy,” it is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer’s disease. Parkinson’s disease gradually impairs an individual’s ability to regulate their muscle movements and leads to a wide range of motor and non-motor symptoms.
