BAD TUMMY/STOMACH TICS

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

My partner has tourettes and he complaints about this tummy tics

 

It looks like his pushing his muscles in and out and then letting them go he does this like every 2 seconds continually through the day

 

He says he feels like he needs to do it - its like a craving and gets some releif for a few seconds but then the craving starts again so he continually does it over and over again during the day till he says he has accidently hurt a muscle in his stomach.......

 

Does anyone have any experince or suggestions on how he might be able to diminish his tummy tics?

 

any suggestions or help would be much appreciated :)

Constant stomach tensing tics hurt like crazy. A heating pad and epsom salt baths might help to ease the pain. Are you able to pinpoint this tic to anything that he may have eaten?

Hi Carolyn, Ive had the stomach tic for 30 yrs. I am now on a special candida diet and take sups. I had great relief for the first time in 30 yrs from this tic last July. But than i had to take pain killers, antibiotics, and cortisone!!!! so now i am trying to work my way back to where i was in july. It was VERY nice to be 80% free from that tic fopr a while. With God's help I'll get there again.

Hi Sunflower -

My 7years old boy have bad these painfull stomachtics too.

We found that massage helped him to relax, as did a "trick" : Bending and stretching his feets, when he did feel the urge to do the stomachtic.

As a matter of fact, he often (but not allways) has been able to use that trick as a "substitute" for other tics as well, that was painfull or bothered him in other ways.

Best wishes -
