Dr. Zhou, my child's Tourette's syndrome has been going around for more than a year, and since the child blinks, shrugs, frowns, and clears his throat, my father and I have been running around the country with the child.
No matter how much money we spend, as long as we can cure the child's illness, we are satisfied, but in the end, we are empty, and we really don't know what to do.......
This is a quote sent to me by the mother of a seven-and-a-half-year-old patient, and after reading this paragraph, my heart was also touched.
Before I communicated with the parents of the little patient, I thought that the child's family conditions were not bad, but after learning about their situation, I secretly made up my mind to do my best to help the child see Tourette's syndrome.
It turned out that the parents of this little patient had no education or education, so they could only do some scattered manual labor. Before the child was diagnosed with Tourette's syndrome, life at home was tight.
When the child is 6 years old, he begins to blink frequently, shrug his shoulders, and one symptom goes down to the other, and the throat makes strange noises in the back.
The test results showed moderate tics, which was a bolt from the blue for this ordinary family. But life is like this, you never know which one will come first, tomorrow or the accident.
When the child is sick, they take the child to see it, the medicine is not less, the money is not less, and the child's tic symptoms are still repeated. This was a big deal for the parents of the children, and later, they came to me after being introduced by a friend.
When I saw the child, I was very upset.
After a detailed examination, it was found that the child's tics were already very serious, with a Yale score of 53.
The dialectic of traditional Chinese medicine is the depression and heat of the liver meridian.
Subsequently, I gave the child an experience prescription and instructed the parents to pay attention to the child's life care.
The effort finally paid off, and the parents reported to me that the child has been able to sleep peacefully recently, the tic symptoms have been significantly reduced, the temper is much better than before, and the child has been sent back to school. Hearing the parents' descriptions, I am also happy for the changes in my children.
Seeing this, you may be curious, why do I say that Tourette's syndrome is that the child is "hot"?
The child's "heat" refers to the fact that children with multiple tics often suffer from pathological products such as wind, phlegm, fire, and stasis, and the root cause is mostly related to liver and spleen imbalance and wind and phlegm obstruction.
This little patient's tics are inseparable from liver fire, so the first thing in my prescription for the child is to drain the liver, clear away heat, and extinguish wind.
And the reason why this little patient tried so many methods to no avail was because he didn't find the right cause and method. When the liver fire is cleared, the tics disappear naturally.
Therefore, when we look at Tourette's syndrome, we still need to find the right cause, whether it is caused by phlegm and fire, or hyperliver, or weakness of the spleen and stomach. If you do it right, you won't have to worry about the results.
