Tactile disorders

Introduction Among all sensory information, tactile stimuli have the highest frequency, from muscle joints to whole body skin, and countless tactile information is continuously input into the brain every day. The brain stem filters this information, and some information that is not important to brain thinking is suppressed. This process of filtering to the selection reaction is the ability to sense integration. Tactile disorders include tactile sensitivity and tactile sensation. Children with tactile sensitivities have a weaker ability to filter information. They are eager to respond to any information. The brain is turbulent, natural attention is not concentrated, and everything in contact with clothes or around them To do uncomfortable treatment, important learning information is naturally difficult to introduce into the cerebral cortex. The children with slow touch are slow to respond, inflexible, the brain has poor resolving power, lacks self-protection awareness, and learning ability is difficult to develop.

Cause

The tactile integration disorder is mainly due to the poor coordination between the tactile nerve and the external environment, which affects the brain's perception and strain on the outside world, that is, the tactile sensitivity (defense is too strong) or the tactile slowness (defense is too weak).

Tactile

Children with tactile sensitivities generally show weak adaptability to new stimuli from outside, like to be familiar with the environment and movements; like to stay the same, have repeated language, repeat actions, and reject any new learning; interpersonal relationship is indifferent, Often trapped in loneliness; afraid of people, away from others; fear of crowding, refusal to line up; do not like being touched or stroked; timid, shy, lack of self-confidence; fear of thick clothes, labels; do not like to touch some rough clothing or items Fear of the wind (air flow will make it feel irritated and itchy); wear long-sleeved clothes on hot days; often refuse to cut hair, wash your hair or wash your face; picky eaters; eat delicious; take things with your fingertips Personal space is too big, will counterattack against casual collisions; interpersonal tension, inattention, difficulty in concentration, turbulence and so on. This kind of child's personality is solitary and unsocial, it is difficult to make friends in the group, it is easy to conflict with people, quarrel, strong offensive, often bullying others.

Children with tactile dysfunction are generally slow to respond (physiological basis of procrastination), inflexible, clumsy, weak in the brain, lack of self-awareness, and low enthusiasm for learning, so they also show problems such as learning difficulties and indifference. It also shows that it is affixed to people, hugs and hugs, and needs a lot of parents to stroke; always like to touch other people's faces or a certain toy, bedding, etc., otherwise refuse to fall asleep; poor resolution; poor pronunciation; lack of safety awareness, accident When you are bruised or bleeding, you often don't notice it; you don't care about snoring, you like to touch a lot of things, and you have compulsive behavior (repeating an action over and over again).

Differential diagnosis

The diagnosis should be differentiated from the following symptoms:

Overreaction to stimuli such as hearing, sight, and touch: Excessive response to stimuli such as hearing, vision, and touch is one of the manifestations of Kraber's disease. Krabbe disease was first reported by the Danish pediatrician Krabbe in 1916, hence the name Krabbe disease, which is also called autosomal recessive according to its clinical features, also known as infantile familial diffuse sclerosis. Genetic metabolic disease.

The genetic defect of Rabe disease causes a deficiency in galactocerein--galactosidase, which is an inherited metabolic disease that mainly affects white matter. The prognosis of this disease is extremely poor. Infants are often ill within 1 year of age. Late-onset people can survive to around 10 years old.
