Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my son is 7 years old. The school teacher has reported that he is always very active. I took him to the hospital for a check-up, and they said he has childhood tics. Could you please tell me what are the causes of childhood tics? Is this condition hereditary? Neither my son nor his father has ever had it.Doctor's answer:
There is a certain genetic factor, and it could also be due to acquired factors. Children with convulsions can be judged based on test results whether the high condition is caused by zinc or lead deficiency. According to the test results, they can be supplemented and regulated, and multiple vitamins can be added. It can also prevent the absorption of lead. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to cultivating good daily habits and study habits, and the cooperation of parents is also necessary to recover. Taking the child out more often for walks on a daily basis is also beneficial.
