The child blinked constantly and shook his head.
Xi'an Children's Hospital

Doctor's answer:

If it is found that a child has tics, parents should not pay excessive attention or prevent them, or force the child to control themselves, as this may lead to increased anxiety in the child and worsen the symptoms. At the same time, parents should reasonably arrange the child's daily life, reduce academic pressure, and communicate with school teachers and classmates to create a relaxed and pleasant environment for the child, thereby enhancing their self-confidence.
