It could be any number of things but if you have no other symptoms that's not how Parkinson's Disease usually starts (which is trembling in the hands). If you haven't taken any medications that can cause movement disorders given that what you described sounds tic like you might look up Tourrette's Syndrome. But only a neurologist can provide a diagnosis so you should see one.
