What is the reason why children with Tourette syndrome cannot stand up?

Patient's question:

The baby is five years old this year. The weather in Beijing has been quite good these days, with no smog. So, I have been taking my child to the square to play every morning. Yesterday, the child suddenly slid down the slide and couldn't stand up. I carried him to the hospital, and the doctor said it was due to Tourette syndrome. I want to know what causes a child with Tourette syndrome to be unable to stand up?

Doctor's answer:

Child Tourette syndrome is a relatively long-term and complex disease, directly related to genetics and living environment. Early rehabilitation for children with Tourette syndrome is better. Parents should cooperate with children in the treatment of their Tourette syndrome. They should not put too much pressure on their children. They should not be nervous, excited, or overly fatigued. Children with tics may not be able to stand, possibly due to neurological issues. Currently, the treatment for children with tics can be achieved through medication and psychological therapy.
