Ok. I find different things help for a time. Nothing seems to work all the time or something unforeseen comes up that limits it’s use. So far I have tried meditation, massage, yoga, hot tub sometimes with jets and bubbles, exercise, Pilates, strength training and just stretching, hot shower, CBC oil, hydrocodone, otc pain meds, walking, drinking more water, diet changes, various topical rubs, cold packs, dance, music and other distractions. I’m sure others have more to add an I have probably forgotten some. Your doctor or a physical therapist might have suggestions.

Some things I try are silly, or acting out my frustration and anger but massage, excercise, CBC, dance Pilates and others worked to varying degrees. Side effects, physical difficulty, learning curve, equipment required, cost and such, limits what I can do. Just thinking up thing to try helps sometimes. Hum... maybe a tens unit. Might be worth a try.... or I think......“maybe its not Parkinson’s! Maybe Something curable! “ l don’t bet on it.

Good luck!

i find the same thing when i walk if i sort of march swinging my arms my walking becomes much easier but i have to stop and straighten my back or i start to tip forward and then shuffle. i don't think i have any other symptoms maybe the need to use the loo more often what about you

I often have festination when I walk, according to my PT. Actually have to stop and "re-set". Start tipping forward if momentum takes over. Use the loo more often, but then, always did drink a lot of water

I dill with it all the time and yes it hurts and I have nothing to take for it. the only thing you might need is a muscle relaxer from your doctor.
