Parkinson’s disease (PD) often presents non-motor symptoms, such as mood disorders and sensory abnormalities, during its prodromal phase. We report a case of a patient diagnosed with PD during treatment for oral dysesthesia.
A 64-year-old male with a history of depression presented with persistent lip discomfort. Despite supportive psychotherapy and medication adjustments, his symptoms progressed over several years, including systemic fatigue, oral dysesthesia, and lip tremors. These led to a diagnosis of PD.
Abnormal oral sensations may be prodromal non-motor symptoms of PD, warranting careful evaluation in similar cases.
