The cause is unknown, and although there is no cure, there are treatment options such as medication and surgery to manage its symptoms.
Primary motor signs of Parkinson's disease include the following:

b) Bradykinesia or slowness of movement
c) Rigidity or stiffness of the limbs and trunk
d) Postural instability or impaired balance and coordination
