There isn't really any known cause as such apart from genetic - if there is a family history, then there appears to be about a 50% chance that offspring with develop this. In my case I had a really bad car accident and it cause a mild TBI amongst other things. It was only after that that my tremors started. The Neurologist paid for by our Accident Compensation Corporation said it was CAUSED by the accident but that the accident triggered it. I don't see any difference myself but it was a fancy way of them getting out of contributing to the cost for the treatments and mileage reimbursement.
