Question

My child has been diagnosed with a tic disorder and has been undergoing treatment for over half a year. I’m not sure how I can better assist with their treatment.

Answer

Proper care, psychological support, and appropriate “tics” can alleviate tic symptoms. In today’s society, we can’t control the social pressures our children face, but we can control what we can do. Try to provide them with a relaxed family environment, in addition to avoiding allergies, as this is also key to treatment. It’s also important to pay attention to a child’s emotional changes in daily life and avoid feeding them spicy or irritating foods.
