   * The classic motor features of PD include rigidity, asymmetric resting tremors, bradykinesia,​ shuffling gait (festination,​ falls, block turn, freezing), and postural instability. In addition, patients may develop hypophonia (soft/​hoarse voice), dysphagia, and drooling, micrographia,​ and seborrhea. As the disease progresses, patients may developing orthostatic hypotension due to progressive destruction of dopaminergic neurons. ​   * The classic motor features of PD include rigidity, asymmetric resting tremors, bradykinesia,​ shuffling gait (festination,​ falls, block turn, freezing), and postural instability.
