For more than 40 years, I have seen many parents of children suffering from Tourette's syndrome, and they have been plagued by Tourette's syndrome over and over again. Children are suffering, and parents are anxious and sorrowful.
Why do Tourette's syndromes tend to recur? To sum it up, it is "only the symptoms".
Take one of my patients, for example. The child is 7 years old, and 1 year ago he was blinking, rolling his eyes, and clearing his throat.
After a month of eating, the child's tic symptoms basically stabilized. After that, the parents thought it was okay and did not return to the clinic.
After a few months, the child suddenly began to make a loud voice and blink frequently. Accompanied by dry stools, poor sleep, and irritable temperament.
Parents hurried over to take a look.
Tongue coating: The tongue is red and thin yellow
Syndrome differentiation: liver and kidney yin deficiency, yang hyperactivity and wind movement
**Principle: nourish water and culvert wood, calm liver wind
Prescription use: gastrodia, chrysanthemum, raw land, Nansha ginseng, prunella vulgaris, calcined keel, wheat winter, raw licorice, etc.
The power is only for the case situation, one person and one party, please use the prescription under the syndrome differentiation of professional Chinese medicine).
At the second diagnosis, the sleep and stool conditions improved, and the blinking was significantly reduced.
After one month of medication, the symptoms stopped. One pair for two days, continue to take it for 3 months, the child learns to improve, the state is very good, and there is no recurrence during the period.
Parents are also very satisfied. But I'm also worried about whether it will be again**.
I said that Tourette's syndrome is easy**, and the main reason is that there is no cure.
The symptoms of tics are only the symptoms, and each child is accompanied by other different manifestations, such as dry stools, poor appetite, poor digestion, rhinitis, sleep problems.
This also shows that the problem of Tourette's syndrome is not just tics.
In Chinese medicine, tics are caused by:Liver wind internal movement, wind phlegmThis is causing ticsDirect cause, is the mark. Fundamentally, the child's internal organs are out of balance.
In Chinese medicine, tics are caused by:Liver wind internal movement, wind phlegmThis is causing ticsDirect cause, is the mark. Fundamentally, the child's internal organs are out of balance.
So the tics are gone, and it's not cured. To put itImbalance in the bodyCorrect it and pinch it offWindEvil phlegm and evilgenerated, this is the root cause.
It's easy to treat the symptoms, but it's hard to cure the root causeRegulating the balance of the viscera is not something that can be achieved by taking a few medications. Some parents do not have the patience to persevere, and the root cause of the disease has not been eliminated, and it is easy to encounter external evils and emotional changes.
In addition, a person's lifestyle habits and emotional changes are the guarantee of health.
Tourette's syndrome is even more so, which is closely related to the family relationship environment and the child's emotions. This is tooThe "roots" of Tourette's syndrome”。Therefore, every time I see a child with Tourette's syndrome, I have to explain to the parents the importance of family relationship and getting along with the child. Therefore, if you want to do a good job with Tourette's syndrome, parents must be patient, find the right direction, and use the right strength.
