Tourette Syndrome
Tourette Syndrome is a neurological disorder characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics. These tics can be motor, such as blinking or head jerking, or vocal, like grunting or throat clearing. The severity and frequency of tics can vary over time and often begin in childhood.
The exact cause of Tourette Syndrome is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve genetic and environmental factors. While there is no cure, various treatments, including behavioral therapy and medication, can help manage symptoms. Awareness and understanding of Tourette Syndrome can improve the quality of life for those affected.
