Shakes the whole body. Reasons at night, if the heart beats, headache, sickness in an elderly person, teenager, child

The whole body can shake due to intense excitement or excitement as a result of a number of events or health conditions in both the adult and the child. A person in such a state cannot live a full life.

Permanent feeling anxious to strong excitement and tremor is an indicator of disorders in the body and causes severe discomfort. However, due to the wide list of possible reasons for the development of such a condition, an examination is required for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Possible reasons

Shakes the whole body, the reasons for which depend on previous events in life or the state of the body, at very different times.

Strong nervous excitement with a pronounced desire to "run" somewhere can occur in the morning or before bedtime, which is also a symptom of certain diseases. Most often, strong excitement and excitement is provoked:

Stress

When stressed at night or during the day, an adult or a child has a feeling of increased excitement. A man is spinning in bed, he cannot find a place for himself. At this time, the heart can pound strongly, the head hurts and there is a feeling of nausea from the experienced stressful situations. Often this condition can appear on the eve of future events (exams, interviews, operations).

In most cases, when the cause of stress disappears, anxiety goes away on its own without medication.

Caffeine

Drinking large amounts of caffeine, which is found in coffee, energy drinks, and even tea causes a strong surge of strength and nervous excitement, which does not go away for a long time time.

Along with overexcitation and slight tremors, insomnia and headache appear.

Lack of sleep

A tremor on the nervous system is triggered by a systemic lack of sleep, since in this case the brain and nervous system do not have time to rest and recover to a normal state. The body experiences a reboot, weakness, which is expressed by increased anxiety and tremors throughout the body.

Dehydration

Dehydration causes in the initial stages of manifestation a strong nervous overexcitement, which is accompanied by tremors throughout the body.

Gradually, anxiety is replaced by a state of increased weakness up to loss of consciousness.

Hyperventilation

With frequent shallow breathing, there is a gradual build-up of a lack of oxygen in the lungs. The exhalation becomes short and the person cannot exhale excess air. All this is accompanied by the appearance of feelings of anxiety and fear.

Neurological diseases

Neuroses (panic attacks) and mental disorders (bipolar disorder, schizophrenia) are often manifested by periodic feelings of increased excitement and shaking throughout the body, arms and legs.

Excitement manifests itself in seizures and can be manic or depressive and accompanied by seizures.

Elevated temperature

Disorders in the work of the brain

With injuries and age-related disorders of the brain, the functional abilities of the body change markedly. In the brain, a separate area may atrophy, a blockage of blood vessels or hemorrhage may occur. All this leads to impaired motor functions and the appearance of shaking throughout the body or limbs.

Drinking alcohol and certain medications

Drinking alcoholic beverages in large quantities for a long time, as well as some medicinal drugs, causes poisoning, disruption in the brain and reduces the ability to control movement. A person may develop tremors throughout the body, especially in the morning.

Cardiovascular diseases

Heart disease, impaired conduction of the heart and contraction of the myocardium provoke agitation and tremors throughout the body as an additional symptom.

The same symptoms appear in the case of a heart attack and arrhythmia, which is associated with oxygen deficiency in the body.

Climax

The onset of menopause causes frequent temperature changes in women, increased sweating and a feeling of mild anxiety and shaking throughout the body, which eventually goes away on its own.
