Doctors around the world believe a rise in cases of tics in young girls are the result of watching TikTok videos about Tourette syndrome.
The condition causes people to develop symptoms like sudden twitches or noises - but hospitals are reporting an increase in teenage girls coming in after developing similar behaviours, according to People.
Experts say this is unusual as tics are more common in boys than in girls.
Canadian, American, British and Australian experts studied patients for months and found that a common factor among all the girls was their interest in watching TikTok creators who talk about having Tourette syndrome, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Texas Children's Hospital reported 60 cases of teen girls being admitted with tics since March 2020, compared with just one or two the previous year.
