Patient's question:
My daughter (who is about to have her birthday) always nods or shakes her head when others ask questions, because she still cannot speak and just makes babbling sounds. But recently, she often shakes her head vigorously from side to side and then smiles, as if she finds it funny. The more we try to stop her, the more she shakes her head. I would like to ask if there is anything wrong with her?Doctor's answer:
If the child is just playful, it's nothing to worry about. Parents can educate the child properly. If it's unconscious, then it's necessary to consider whether the child might have tics.
