Question
A 12-year-old boy has been frequently shaking his head for over half a year, with no significant improvement after traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Recently, his symptoms have worsened, with his neck twisting to the right and stopping, making it impossible for him to control it himself. The parents are worried it might be ADHD.
Answer
Based on the description, this condition may be caused by neurological symptoms of hyperactivity. It is recommended to undergo acupuncture treatment and supplementing with medications that nourish the nerves. Simply increasing fruit intake is not very effective; one can try supplementing with vitamins. Hyperactivity can have a significant impact on children, and if not treated promptly and correctly, the condition may deteriorate rapidly. Parents should pay close attention and take their child to a doctor early on.
