Parkinson's disease is a debilitating neurological condition that primarily affects the muscles and skeletal system - but it can exhibit other signs that are lesser known.In fact, research indicates that symptoms may appear in people before they are diagnosed, with one found to impact our hearing.

A previous study found that early signs of Parkinson's disease may include hearing loss and epilepsy.Published in JAMA Neurology in 2022, the research highlights symptoms that could appear years before an official diagnosis is made.

This pioneering UK study delved into the neurodegenerative disorder within a diverse population group.It aimed for a comprehensive understanding of its impact on different individuals.

The findings, made by Queen Mary University of London, indicate that ethnicity and socio-economic status do not influence the likelihood of developing Parkinson's disease.The team scrutinised risk factors and symptoms prior to diagnosis by examining medical records from over one million East London residents from 1990 to 2018.
