What could cause this? A stupid, yet relavent example would be an easy cheese can... you know, the cheese you squirt out onto crackers? Well, if I hold the can normally and try and use my index finger to push down on the knob to get cheese to come out, my hand starts to shake quite badly and does not stop for a few seconds. This happens no matter what I am using my fingers for, even typing causes my wrists to quiver a bit now and then...
Anyone here actually know what they're talking about and able to give me some suggestions?

Visit a neurologist and let him advise you properly.

I'm not real sure but it sounds like you're putting too much stress on your wrist and fingers. Holding the cheese can and bending the wrist, then applying pressure to the button to release the cheese, causes an unnatural angle. If you stress the tendons and ligaments enough, you get the shaking hands.
Typing, as far as I'm concerned, is one of the roughest things to do to shoulders, wrists, hands, and fingers. Usually they're held in such an awkward position, shoulders scrunched up, wrist bent in while the hands and fingers are splayed out to get to the keys, that it causes stress on them. Thus you have carpal tunnel syndrome. Take a moment to stretch your hands and fingers every few minutes to relieve the stress. Euro key boards also help relieve some of this stress as your shoulders aren't always scrunched up.
If you experience pain in your shoulders, wrists, take a long break and go to the doctor. This could be the on set of carpal tunnel if in the wrists, and tendinitis if in the shoulders. Neither is something you want to play with.

I'm a Health Care Assistant, and I don't want to make you panic but trembling hands are some of the first symptoms we are trained to look out for in people developing: Parkinson's, or Multiple Sclerosis.
Of course, it could be just weak tendons or nerves, but I must recommend that you visit you're GP asap and discuss this further with him. He will refer you to a specialist.
As I say, don't panic, it could be something minor, but do seek professional help asap.

OK, there are a few possibilities:
1. would be lack of motor skills there are several diseases that case that. one is Cyrille palsy.
2. carpal tunnel
3. lack of muscle build
4. a pinched nerve.
The best thing is to have a doctor or chiropractor look at you to get the best answer. I know it's cheaper to come here, but I would rather have some one with a medical license and knowledge to answer this one!!!

You could have hypoglycemia low blood sugar. Also nerve damage could do this. Poor blood flow to your hands if they get numb.

It can be either too much coffee or caffeine. Or you dont sleep enough or maybe you need to lift some weights to increase your strength.
