How should tics be treated better?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended going to the neurology department for a check-up. How should I treat tics better?

Doctor's answer:

The clinical manifestations of Tourette syndrome primarily involve sudden, uncontrolled multiple-body twitches in children, sometimes accompanied by strange sounds. This condition cannot heal on its own and must be managed through medication or psychological therapy to control relapses. Psychological therapy is particularly important because Tourette syndrome can be a significant mental burden for children, potentially leading to negative impacts on their future personality development. Parents need to provide more recognition, care, and encouragement.
