Patient's question:
The symptoms of tics in children are severe. I would like to ask how to conservatively treat tics in children? What precautions should be noted?Doctor's answer:
Child Tourette syndrome is a common motor disorder, affecting about 15% of children at some point. Clinically known as tics, it is more prevalent in children and adolescents, with males being more affected. The main symptoms include involuntary, repetitive, and rapid movements or vocal tics, often accompanied by attention deficits, hyperactivity, obsessive thoughts, and other behavioral symptoms. The treatment of Tourette syndrome primarily involves medication and psychotherapy. It is best to take the child to a regular hospital for a detailed examination to see what treatment the doctor recommends.
