ds has a tick...

[mousymouse]

he is 4 and the last few days he is clearing his thoat constantly. he hasnt got a cold atm.
he had a tick a couple of years ago where he would squeeze his eyes shut all the time. gp then said its nothing to worry about and it stopped soon.
anyone has experience?
I will leave him for another week and if it doesn*t stop I will go to the gp again...

sorry no ideas on ticks, i came on to thread to say make sure you get some proper tick tweezers to remove it don't just pull it off but obv. you aren't referring to the insects.

It's often an anxiety thing. Any changes at school/pre-school, home etc.

not really a change at the moment, but he had a tick before.

DDs get worse when she is tired or worried or I think developing in someway - either being challenged by schoolwork, being bullied and sometimes having a growth spurt. Usually I look back afterwards and can work out the trigger.

Sorry not much help really.

Sorry to be a slight pedant here, but you mean tic, not tick. Ticks are nasty insects that burrow into your skin and have to be salted off or pulled out from the head. I thought you were wanting advice on how to pull an insect out of your DS's leg!

thank you for that, I didn*t know the difference.
