Abstract:
Tic disorder is a common neuropsychiatric disorder in children and one of the common serious chronic diseases that endanger children's health.According to YE Tianshi's theory of"yang transforms into internal wind",water fails to nourish wood(kidney yin deficiency can not nourish liver wood),spleen deficiency and liver hyperactivity,wood stagnation and intense fire cause internal wind,and leading to frenetic stirring of tendons.Insect drugs are considered to be"pathogenic wind"in terms of pathogenic factors,and the pain wanders unsteadily.They have the effects of tonifying the kidney and supplementing essence,calming the liver and suppressing wind,resolving phlegm and relieving spasm,dispelling wind and purging heat,dredging collaterals and removing blood stasis,which exert certain effects in treating children with tic disorder.Modern pharmacological studies have shown that insect drugs can treat children with tic disorders from multiple perspectives such as anti-convulsion,regulation of neurotransmitters,inhibition of neuroinflammation,and regulation of immunity.Based on the theory of"yang transforms into internal wind",this paper analyzes the application of insect drugs in the treatment of children with tic disorder,which can provide theoretical reference for the prevention and treatment of tic disorder by traditional Chinese medicine.
