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. Is the prognosis for Tourette syndrome difficult?Doctor's answer:
Tics in children, if the clinical symptoms are relatively mild, can generally be treated through psychological therapy. Encouragement can be given to the child to encourage more social interaction, which is usually not a problem. If the clinical symptoms are severe, medication is typically added alongside psychological therapy as a foundation, usually involving sedative drugs. Currently, the prognosis for tic treatment is relatively good, and full recovery is possible.
