Stiffness in body especially in arms and legs is quite common in patients with Parkinson’s disease. Patients having Parkinson’s disease are not able to properly move and swing their arms while walking or doing other things like before as low dopamine levels have an adverse impact on muscles that bring coordination during the movements. People might feel pain or stiffness in their hips or shoulders which makes them unable to move and walk. Another common condition among older people is arthritis which also affects the moving and abilities of a person but Parkinson’s disease makes a person stuck to the floor thus causing trouble with walking.
