Detailed explanation-1: -Parkinson’s disease can cause involuntary muscle movements that may affect the face and mouth. Movements affecting the mouth can occur in the jaw, tongue, or lips.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some people, especially later in Parkinson’s, may have trouble chewing or swallowing, or difficulty with drooling. Others might have extra movements (dyskinesia) in the mouth or jaw, or they could grind their teeth. Parkinson’s medications may cause dry mouth. Dry mouth increases the risk of cavities or gum disease.
Detailed explanation-3: -Dystonia is a sustained or repetitive muscle twisting, spasm or cramp that can occur at different times of day and in different stages of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Dystonia is a common early symptom of young-onset Parkinson’s, but it can appear during any stage of Parkinson’s.
Detailed explanation-4: -About 7 in 10 people with Parkinson first have a slight tremor in a hand or foot, according to the Parkinson Foundation. The tremor usually occurs when the muscles are at rest and relaxed.
