Hi
Your daughter has a tic.
These are common in chldren (5-25% of all kids get them.)
They are worse during periods of emotional distress and absent during sleep.
They usually last 4 weeks but less than 12 months.
The best thing to do is to pay them no attention as this often re-inforces the tic and makes it worse.The tic often irriates the parent or sometimes it is a symptom of anxiety or bullying.
If severe or causing distress medication is
sometimes used.
Hope this helps.
