Is acupuncture effective for Tourette syndrome?

Patient's question:

Lately, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended checking with the neurology department. Is acupuncture effective for tics?

Doctor's answer:

The baby's mild tics are also related to the baby's behavioral factors. It is necessary to have an improved electromyography examination, and if necessary, further improved electroencephalography and other examinations should be conducted to identify the cause. Acupuncture can be appropriately combined. It is recommended to consult a pediatric hospital's neurology department for follow-up. Some medications can be used to stabilize symptoms, and it is also important to pay attention to a balanced diet.
