The disorder commonly causes slowing of movement or stiffness.In the early stages of Parkinson’s disease, arms may not swing during walk or face may show slight or no expression at all or the speech may become unclear or soft. The symptoms of this disease worsen as the condition progresses over time.Although Parkinson's disease cannot be cured, medications may markedly improve the symptoms.
