Various Forms of Tourette Syndrome
What Causes It, Signs It, and How to Treat It
Common neurological disorders include Tourette’s syndrome, which manifests as vocalizations and repetitive, stereotyped motions that are not controlled by the patient. Children under the age of puberty often experience this disease. The majority of individuals report a significant amelioration of symptoms upon entering adulthood, and the symptoms tend to get better with time.
Involuntary and repeated vocalizations and movements characterize Tourette’s Syndrome, a neurological condition. Simple or complex movements and noises, along with additional symptoms like anxiety, sadness, or obsessive- compulsive disorder, are not uncommon.
