Detailed explanation-1: -Stage Two: Symptoms begin affecting movement on both sides of your body. Once the motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are affecting both sides of the body, you have progressed to Stage Two. You may begin having trouble walking and maintaining your balance while standing.
Detailed explanation-2: -Stage 2. Tremors, trembling, and stiffness affect both sides of the body and become more noticeable. As stiffness increases, the person may find that daily tasks are harder to carry out and take longer than before. Walking, speech, and posture problems are often more noticeable in stage 2 of Parkinson’s disease.
Detailed explanation-3: -The timeline for the stages varies but most people go up one stage every two years, except for stage 2 which is five years.
Detailed explanation-4: -How long does it take for Parkinson’s disease to progress? The progression of PD varies, and it can range from a few years to several decades. This partly depends on when the first symptoms begin. For example, in people who develop PD before age 50, the symptoms often take a long time to progress-20 years or longer.
