My son is 3 yr and 4 months old. Since last month he started frequently blinking both of his eyes at various times of a day. It was coming and going on some irregular day interval. Sometime he is fine for 3-4 days. Initially we haven't found any pattern of this behavior. However lately we noticed that he blinks the left eye more and sometimes associated with a facial tic at the left side of hic face. Since last week he pretty much tics every day, specially after waking up from sleep/nap, whenever he is thinking something, or he is upset/crying for any reason. We have made a visit to a Neurologist, but he didn't give any solution other than wait and watch. He also said that it may go away after 2-3 years. Could anyone please help us by giving some suggestion, direction of handling, therapy etc. Thanks,
