What should I do if my child constantly blinks?

Patient's question:

Son is seven years old. A little over a month ago, it was discovered that he was unconsciously blinking his eyes non-stop. The doctor said it was follicular conjunctivitis.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, tics often become more pronounced during times of emotional tension or anxiety, so it's important to pay attention to this. Currently, treatment methods primarily focus on psychiatric medications and traditional Chinese medicine. You can visit a hospital and, under the specific guidance of a doctor, use traditional Chinese medicine for regulation for a period of time. Western medicine should be avoided as much as possible, as it has significant side effects. It's essential to maintain a cheerful mood. We know that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has a significant impact on children. If it's not treated promptly or if the treatment method is incorrect, its progression can be rapid, causing great harm to the patient. Therefore, parents should pay close attention to their child's condition and seek timely treatment.
