What is the matter with the child shaking his head?

Every move of the children touches the hearts of their parents, and their healthy growth is the parents' greatest wish. However, due to the rapid pace of modernization, people have been exposed to too many high-tech products and have consumed more genetically modified foods, posing a threat to children's health. What's going on when a child shakes his head? This question comes up frequently in the conversations between many parents. Looking at this issue scientifically can help children return to normal and health.

If a child nods frequently, he may have tics. Tourette syndrome, also known clinically as Tourette syndrome, is a chronic disease that occurs in childhood and is characterized by multiple involuntary tics, language or behavioral disorders. Common manifestations of children include involuntary nodding and shaking of the head. As time goes by, the condition changes continuously, and the symptoms of tics gradually diversify, showing a fluctuating and progressive development process, and often recur. In this regard, parents must pay attention to it, prevent confusion with other diseases, discover it in time, and treat it early.

1. Genetic factors: Genetics plays an important role in the development of tics. Studies have shown that transient tics have obvious familial clustering, and tics are more common among family members of sick children. The probability of children of parents with tics also suffering from tics is significantly higher than that of children of normal families.

2. Physical factors: Children with certain neuropsychiatric types are prone to this disease, such as those who are neurotic, timid, hyperactive, emotionally unstable, sensitive to people and things, and have a tendency to be stubborn. Moreover, this disease is often accompanied by unexplained headaches, abdominal pain, constipation, enuresis, etc. Therefore, children's tics are related to the physical factors of the children themselves.

3. Mental factors: Fright, emotional excitement, sadness, watching thrilling TV shows, novels and stimulating cartoons can induce and aggravate tic symptoms. Parents must pay attention to the reasonable amount of TV their children watch.

4. Environmental factors: The family and social environment are too complicated, the parents’ education methods are inappropriate, the teachers beat or physically punish the children, and especially the parents’ tense relationship, divorce, scolding or beating the children, etc. These are the factors that cannot be ignored in causing tics in children.

5. Other factors: Abnormal diet, sudden illness, such as upper respiratory tract infection and minor brain injury can also be one of the causes. Studies have found that fatty and sweet diet and severe colds can also induce tics. In addition, long-term use of central nervous system stimulants, such as long-term use of phenpromide and Ritalin by children with Tourette syndrome, can cause tic disorders or worsen tics.

Children are the hope of the family. During the pregnancy process, parents should create a harmonious atmosphere for their children and must not let adults' emotions affect their children's growth. In daily life, children should feel the warmth of the family, and parents should not bring the pressure of work and life to their children. The above tips on what is going on when a child shakes his head are given, warning parents and friends to set a good example for their children, serve as a role model and positive energy, and provide children with a comfortable environment for growth.
