These past few days, I've been quite worried, wondering if my child might have Tourette syndrome. Hello, what department should one consult for Tourette syndrome?Doctor's answer:
The child's Tourette syndrome, it is recommended to see the pediatric department or neurology department in the hospital. Tourette syndrome often occurs on the face, and the appearance of facial tics can be somewhat disruptive to the body, leading to muscle twitches. It is necessary to go to the hospital for a thorough examination as soon as possible and then use anti-tic medications for treatment, which is better to prevent serious harm to the body. Generally, after treatment, the disease can be controlled.
