Suggest treatment sensory processing disorder in children
Patient: My 6-year-old son is normally eager to please, outgoing, happy, very bright and something of a perfectionist - most of the time. Other times, he wanders around with a vague smile or spins around, often swinging things and running into people or hitting them with no apparent recollection afterward. When he s in this state, he has to be physically redirected because he seems oblivious to verbal commands. Is it possible he s having seizures? He s also been diagnosed with sensory processing disorder - mostly over-sensitivity to touch and auditory stimuli. The behavior I ve described above has been ascribed to the sensory issues, but while O.T. has helped with his other sensory symptoms, the spinning and zoning out persist unabated.
