Chronic Motor Tic Disorder treatment in Mexico City

Anyone living with chronic motor tic disorder finds support in the neurologist, and in children in the pediatric neurologist, professionals who evaluate these involuntary movements and rule out other causes. Chronic motor tic disorder is characterized by repetitive, rapid, and involuntary movements of one or more muscle groups that persist over a prolonged period.

How it presents: blinking, grimacing, shoulder shrugging, or head jerking that the person performs without intending to and that may increase with stress.

When to seek care? If the tics cause physical discomfort, affect school or social life, or are accompanied by other symptoms.

The general practitioner can guide the first contact and refer to the appropriate specialist; assessing it in time helps to better understand the condition and reduce its daily impact.
