Patient's question:
.5 has a one-year-old girl who often makes actions similar to adult sexual behavior: for example, when she is lying down, she will keep rubbing vigorously; if she is picked up, she will cry, and she will also touch herself with her hands. I don't know if there is any problem, please ask the expert for instructions on previous treatment history and effectiveness: no? noDoctor's answer:
Hello! When a child exhibits this behavior again, it should not be referred to as precocious puberty but rather as a behavioral disorder called "habitual genital rubbing." "Habitual genital rubbing" is most often performed when falling asleep or just waking up, lasting for several minutes, and may even be done secretly to prevent adult intervention. During recurrence, it may be accompanied by flushed face, staring, or even profuse sweating. It should be guided by diverting their attention, and it is absolutely not acceptable to use punishment, scolding, or sarcasm. Physical activity for a certain period before bed can help the child fall asleep quickly after lying down.
