Why do children get tics?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. Why does the child get tics?

Doctor's answer:

The etiology of Tourette syndrome is currently unclear in clinical diagnosis, possibly resulting from abnormalities in the metabolism of neurotransmitters or genetic factors of the disease. Currently, there is no specific treatment for Tourette syndrome in children in clinical diagnosis. The treatment plan is primarily based on a comprehensive evaluation, including health education, medication treatment, behavioral psychological therapy, surgical treatment, etc. It is important to correctly understand the disease and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment.
