I have a 6yr.old who just started ticks last Jan. He clears his throat, sniffs, blinks his eyes and also twitches his head. I took him to a neuroligist she walked in the door ...Oh! he has ticks, just ticks, nothing wrong with him he just has ticks. They could go away or he could have them forever.That doesn't help me. I want to know why , and how he got ticks. Not happy and very scared. She put him on clonidine. I don't like giving my child meds that I'm not sure about. He's been on them a week there hasn't been much change besides he goes right to sleep. And info about ticks or where to get info please respond.
Thank you,

The internet should have a lot of information on tics - I might suggest you google the phrase "children and tics" or similar words/phrases to find out about this topic. Please note that the word is spelled "tic" - your spelling indicates fleas or bugs. Hope this helps ....
Thank you,
