Tics are either transient, with a duration of less than 12 consecutive months, or chronic, with a course that lasts more than a year, and can be either primary (idiopathic) or secondary. Common simple tics are eye blinking, shoulder jerking, picking movements, grunting, sniffing and barking. Complex tics include facial grimacing, arm flapping, coprolalia (use of obscene words), palilalia (repeating one's own words) and echolalia (repeating another's words or phrases).

For regularly updated information on a variety of health topics, please visit familydoctor.org , the AAFP patient education Web site. An article on this topic is available in this issue of AFP Understanding Tics and Tourette's Syndrome What are tics? Tics are movements or sounds that are repeated over and over. A person with a tic can't control the movement or sounds. Tics usually last less than a year. Throat clearing and eye squinting are common tics. Tics are often worse when a person is stressed, tired or anxious. Some medicines make tics worse. What is Tourette's syndrome? Tourette's syndrome is one form of tic disorder. Children with Tourette's syndrome have both repetitive movements and sounds, but they may not always occur together. Several different tics can happen at the same time. The tics and sounds of Tourette's syndrome usually start between 3 and 10 years of age. They come and go, and usually they aren't a severe problem. Your child may have a tic but not have Tourette's syndrome. Will my child outgrow this?

T OURETTE'S S YNDROME Tourette's Syndrome is characterized by multiple motor tics and at least one vocal tic. A tic is a sudden, rapid movement of some of the muscles in the body that occurs over and over and doesn't serve any purpose. The location, frequency, and complexity of tics changes over time. Motor tics frequently involve the head, central body, legs, and arms. They may result in simple movements such as eye blinking, or more complex movements such as touching and squatting. Vocal tics can include sounds such as grunts, barks, sniffs, snorts, coughs, and obscenities. Tourette's Syndrome is always diagnosed before the age of eighteen - most commonly appearing around seven years of age. It occurs more often in males than females and symptoms are usually present for life. The severity of Tourette's varies a great deal over time, but improvement can occur during late adolescence and in adulthood. Teens with Tourette's Syndrome often have additional problems with obsessions compulsions hyperactivity , distractibility, and impulsiveness.

Home Low Graphics Site Home back Both multiple motor and one or more vocal tics are present at some time during the illness, although not necessarily simultaneously Occurrence many times a day nearly every day or intermittently throughout a span of more than one year Significant impairment or marked distress in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. Onset before the age of 18 Symptoms can disappear for weeks or months at a time and severity waxes and wanes. What are the first tics that may be characteristic of TS? Usually, the facial tic, such as rapid blinking of the eyes or twitches of the mouth, may be the first indication a parent has that their child may have TS. Involuntary sounds, such as throat clearing and sniffing, or tics of the limbs may be an initial sign in other children. Approximately 50 percent of patients meet criteria for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and this may be the more impairing problem. Approximately one-third of patients meet criteria for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) or have other forms of anxiety. Learning disabilities are common as well as developmental stuttering. Social discomfort, self-consciousness and depressed mood frequently occur, especially as children reach adolescence. What causes these symptoms?

Text: What is Tourette's Syndrome When her daughter was ten years old and began constantly flicking her hair back, Sue Cameron would make jokes about getting it all cut off unless she stopped. Soon the hair flicking was replaced by something else. This time her daughter Fiona started sniffing constantly, but doctors could find nothing wrong. Then Fiona began making squeaking noises like a bird. She even kept herself awake making the noises, so that sometimes her mother would spend hours each night, gently stroking her to help her fall asleep. What was happening to her normally happy, healthy, intelligent daughter? Eventually she found the answer. A brain specialist diagnosed Fiona as having Tourette Syndrome, a movement disorder caused by a problem with the brain. This problem, which affects thousands of people in Australia of all ethnic backgrounds, causes people to make repetitive movements and sounds which they can't control.
