Online-Clinic Disorders: Tourette The diagnostic criteria for Tourette Disorder or Tourette Syndrome (TS) are motor and vocal tics. Tics are usually sudden movements or sounds. The most common motor tics are eye squinting, facial grimacing or head shaking. Common vocal tics are throat clearing, lip smacking or sniffing. The typical age for these tics to begin are 4 or 5 years of age. Boys have the disorder 3 to 9 times more frequently than girls. In most cases the disorder peaks in severity at 10-12 years of age. In about 25% of patients the disorder does not improve until adolescence. In 10% of patients the disorder is severe and persists through adulthood. Medication is often helpful in patients with moderate to severe tics or tics which are severe or unacceptable. The book Children with Tourette Syndrome provides management suggestions for parents and teachers.
