Patient's question:

Doctor, my relative's child is now 4 or 5 years old. The child's hand sometimes keeps twitching. When I went to the hospital, they said it was because of tics, so I want to ask the doctor a few questions about what to do if a child aged 4 or 5 has tics, and what measures can be taken.

Doctor's answer:

If a child has Tourette Syndrome, it is mainly caused by psychological and mental issues. This condition can generally improve gradually through positive re-adjustment. This is not an organic disease, so there is no need to worry. It is recommended to pay attention to positive re-adjustment of mindset and focus on cultivating the child's concentration.
