#3. Tremors that worsen when moving hand approaches a target, for example, to pick up a pencil or scratch one's nose. This relatively uncommon pattern is seen with damage to part of brain known as cerebellum, located in back of head.

To extent that underlying problem can be fixed, tremor will usually improve as well. So if someone's tremor is due to an overactive thyroid, tremor will improve when thyroid problem is corrected. If a tremor is due to Parkinson's disease, then it will get better with medication for this condition. And if medication itself is causing problem, then a dose-reduction or substitution of another drug might do trick.

What if an underlying cause is not found, or correction of an underlying problem doesn't make tremor go away? Treatment might still be available. In case of tremors most evident with hands in air, certain medications might provide meaningful improvement, including primidone (brand name Mysoline), propranolol (Inderal), metoprolol (Lopressor) and gabapentin (Neurontin).

People with anxiety (inner nerves) respond best to anxiety-relieving medications and counseling. But medications that relieve anxiety do not help tremors (outer nerves) much, except to extent that they make patient drowsy. This is because all tremors improve with drowsiness. However, being perpetually drowsy is not a favorable trade-off for controlling tremor.

Who should get treated? It's an individual decision. Assuming that underlying problems have already been screened for, symptomatic treatment of inner nerves or outer nerves depends on answers to two questions:

#1. Does symptom cause distress? #2. Does symptom interfere with usual activities?

An affirmative answer to either question means that treatment should be considered.

Symptoms of water intoxication include pale urine, using more than 8 diapers a day, and baby sleeping more than usual and being difficult to wake up.

Mothers should be advised that healthy infants get all water they need in breast milk or formula.

A baby can get water intoxication as a result of drinking several bottles of water a day or from drinking infant formula that has been diluted too much.

Water fills baby without adding calories, so water supplementation can result in weight loss or insufficient weight gain for baby.

Pediatricians advise feeding babies 2 to 3 oz. more than their age in months at each feeding. For example, babies 4 months old would be fed 6 to 7 oz. three times a day. More than 8 oz. at any one feeding rarely necessary. The usual proportions of milk to water should be about two-thirds milk to one-third water. With these proportions, baby receives about 8 oz of water equally spaced over a 24 hour period. If formula is diluted, mild should not be less than 50 percent.

Only around seven months of age, when baby has started eating solid foods, should a little water be introduced in a cup.

Water intoxication can be prevented by following your physicians instructions.
