Changwon Tourette Syndrome? When symptoms of pediatric tic disorder appear in a child

  • I am Chief Director of Magic Korean Medicine Clinic, meeting with parents in the clinic who are very worried about tics and Tourette's syndrome.
  • Parents often come to the clinic in surprise when a child who previously only blinked their eyes or wrinkled their nose suddenly starts making "mmm" sounds.
  • They also often say that they scolded him a few times, thinking it was a habit, but it actually got worse.

Ulsan Tic Disorder Diagnosis and Treatment: Is a Child’s Repeated Behavior a Tic or a Habit?

  • For over 20 years, as a Korean medicine doctor (KMD) I have focused exclusively on the in-depth research and treatment of mental and neurological disorders, and I have met countless children and parents struggling with tics.
  • When you first noticed that your child's gaze or voice was different from usual, you probably tried to dismiss it as just a temporary habit.
  • However, if the symptoms do not disappear over time and instead recur frequently, parents cannot help but feel endlessly anxious and worried.
