5 Year Old Shoulder Shrugs... Should i be concerned?
Over the past few months, my 5-year-old has developed a recurring shoulder shrug both shoulders rising together, sometimes with a brief pause before releasing. It happens randomly throughout the day.
We've seen a chiropractor and a GP, but neither seemed confident it was a tic. That said, my instinct is leaning that way.
Has anyone else's child experienced something similar at this age? A few questions I'd love input on:
- How did you handle it day-to-day?
- Did it go away on its own over time?
- Were you ever able to identify a trigger or root cause?
It appeared seemingly out of nowhere, which makes it hard to know where to start. Any experiences, advice, or information would be genuinely appreciated.
