Tic disorders: Some kids will develop transient tic disorders marked by non-random, repetitive movements involving any of the facial muscles but often the eyelids, brows and or blinking. These are thought to represent a response to a prior infection, often viral that settled in the nerves controlling selective muscles.Some will burn out in less than six months, some will persist.Your pcp can help u sort it out.
