What are the methods to treat children's tics?

Patient's question:

Hello, what are the methods for treating childhood tics?

Doctor's answer:

When children with Tourette syndrome grow up, nearly half of them will experience a disappearance of their tics, but more than half of children with Tourette syndrome will have many symptoms, such as poor concentration, that persist for a long time. In youth, this can manifest as academic neglect and poor social adaptation; in adulthood, it can lead to anxiety, low self-esteem, personality disorders, strained interpersonal relationships, a lack of achievements, and poor socioeconomic status. Therefore, it is essential to implement treatment, and it must not be taken lightly.
