Question
What are the treatment methods for pediatric tic disorder? What are the common symptoms?
Answer
The main symptoms of pediatric tic disorder include head shaking and hair-raising. Treatment typically began around 2007, with traditional Chinese medicine using an overall perspective and the principles of dialectical reasoning to formulate treatment plans. These plans are based on the five elements, yin and yang, nutrient and protective qi, blood and pulse images. Treatments include herbal decoctions, traditional Chinese medicine preparations, acupuncture, and massage to improve the child’s constitution and remove the root cause. For tic disorders caused by emotions, additional methods to soothe the liver and relieve depression are used to help patients improve their personality.
