My son often blinks and sometimes stretches his neck. What kind of disease does it belong to?

Patient's question:

Male, 13 years old, has had this symptom since about 7 or 8 years old.

Doctor's answer:

ADHD can form habitual actions, requiring self-regulation. Appropriately shifting attention can help improve tics. Tics, also known as Tourette Syndrome, is a syndrome characterized by multiple involuntary tics, language or behavioral disorders. In children, tics manifest as brief, rapid, sudden, and varying degrees of involuntary movements, initially appearing as frequent blinking, squinting, sniffling, pouting, opening the mouth, sticking out the tongue, nodding, etc. Based on the above description, it cannot be fully determined. It is recommended to visit a hospital for examination, diagnosis, and treatment!!
