Hi I have one question doctor, my cousin aunty is suffering from Parkinson's disease, her age is 54. She is suffering for the last 5 years. Before 5 years she is well-active. Now she is not even able to walk. My question is, will their daughter/son will affect by the same disease in future? Is it a generation disease? Please tell. Thank you.

It's rare for parkinson's disease to be passed down from parent to child. Most cases of parkinson's aren't hereditary. But people who get early-onset parkinson's disease are more likely to have inherited it. Having a family history of parkinson's disease may increase the risk that you'll get it. There are some long term ayurvedic solutions but needed to be taken consistently. These are safe, effective and economic. Pl consult.
