Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and cold drafts.Does blinking of a child have anything to do with vaginal infections in postpartum women?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, it should be fine. Most cases of frequent blinking in children are caused by tics. Tics refer to the repeated, rapid, and involuntary contractions of a group or cluster of muscles in any part of the body. They are most common in children, particularly boys aged 5-12. In very rare cases, they can persist into adulthood. The main symptoms of tics include blinking, raising the eyebrows, wrinkling the nose, sticking out the tongue, licking the lips, nodding, shaking the head, shrugging, and flicking the fingers, among others, occurring in an alternating pattern.
