Patient's question:
My sister suffers from severe Tourette syndrome, but I want her to get better quickly because she is only 16 and cannot let this condition grow with her. So, how should Tourette syndrome be treated to be completely cured? Is there any medication we should give her, and are there any precautions to be aware of?Doctor's answer:
Around the age of 16, the child suffers from tics and needs to go to the hospital for a thorough examination to determine the cause of the tics. Based on the examination results, symptomatic treatment should be provided to actively suppress the child's tics. During the period of tics, a lot of energy is consumed, so it is important to pay attention to the child's diet and provide them with energy-rich foods to enhance nutrition.
