Child shrugging shoulders

In life, if parents find that their children often shrug their shoulders, they should pay attention. Of course, in general, children's such behavior may be related to their sense of satisfaction. As long as there are no abnormalities in other body and facial expressions, do not intervene or correct too much. Of course, if the child persists for a long time, it should be a cause for concern. Let us learn about this aspect.

Baby keeps shrugging his shoulders

If the baby has no other discomfort, it is considered that the baby has acquired new abilities, like shaking head, sticking out tongue, blowing bubbles, blinking, turning back hand, waving, etc. The baby has learned an additional skill.

First, babies are naughty. Sometimes when they see adults shrugging their shoulders, they think it is fun and will imitate them. After imitating for a long time, it will be difficult to get rid of this habit.

Second, the baby's nerves are not fully developed, and occasional shrugging of shoulders is a nerve tic and does not affect his health.

3. Involuntary shrugging of shoulders is the main symptom of tics caused by pediatric diseases such as tics. If in doubt, it is best to take your child to the hospital for examination.

Another consideration is pediatric tics:

Psychological and behavioral therapy should explain the nature of the disease to the children's parents and ask them not to be anxious or nervous. This can eliminate the reinforcement effect caused by the parents' nervousness and excessive attention. Children's tics can be ignored, so that the symptoms will gradually weaken and disappear. Do not remind or blame your child repeatedly, otherwise it will further increase the excitability of the cerebral cortex and make tics more frequent. Efforts should be made to distract children and guide them to participate in various meaningful activities. Behavioral therapy methods such as muscle relaxation therapy and operant management are effective in eliminating tic symptoms. When the child is receiving treatment, the cooperation of his parents and himself should be obtained, and guidance should be given to the parents to assist in the treatment.
