hi i have what i believe to be a tic. i get a sensation in my nose, which makes me scrunch up my face, bite the insides of my cheeks and do an unusual movement with my hands infront of my face. when i do this it can last from 5 seconds upwards. the more i do it the more i need to and i sometimes get stuck in a rut where i continously do it. i have done this my entire life and always been to scared to talk to anyone. i can control it until no one can see me (or only immediate family) but then its worse than if i had just done it. i am now scared to talk to a doctor incase they try to remove my driving license. any advice on what to do would be great thank you
The symptoms can be related to an allergy. I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily. I also suggest using a steroidnasal spray for local application.
