Question
Since last year, my child has been experiencing blinking, sometimes accompanied by throat noises, and lately, more frequent head shaking. Are these symptoms severe? How should they be handled?
Answer
According to the description, traditional Chinese medicine believes that these symptoms may be related to internal liver wind activity and suggests treatment with Chinese medicine. Western medicine categorizes it as a tic disorder and advises paying attention to a light diet and avoiding spicy foods. Considering both Western and traditional Chinese medical perspectives, these symptoms are generally not severe but still require appropriate attention and professional medical advice.
