Tremor when reaching for objects
An intention tremor is shaking that becomes most noticeable when you try to perform a precise movement, such as reaching for a glass or touching your nose. Unlike resting tremor, it gets worse the closer your hand gets to the target. It typically points to issues with the cerebellum.
