Are you experiencing hallucinations that involve physical sensations or body pain? This is known as a tactile hallucination — when someone feels something on or in their body that isn't actually there.
Tactile hallucinations are one of several types that can occur with Parkinson's. Here's a quick overview of the types:
- Visual – seeing things that aren't there (most common)
- Auditory – hearing sounds or voices
- Olfactory – smelling things that aren't there
- Gustatory – tasting things that aren't there
- Tactile – feeling physical sensations, like bugs crawling or biting One MyParkinsonsTeam member shared that their husband was most bothered by the feeling of bugs in his shoes biting his feet — a classic example of a tactile hallucination.
These sensations can feel completely real, which makes them especially distressing. They can be caused by Parkinson's progression itself, or as a side effect of medications like [[treatment:Levodopa/Carbidopa:55d534f51fcaa397470006dd]].
It's really important to let a neurologist or doctor know if these sensations are happening. They may be able to adjust medications or explore other treatment options to help manage them.
