Guest guest Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Pushing, not rubbing right? Pushing=inflammation, rubbing=yeast, in my experience. Pay close attention to diet, something in his diet may cause it and increase antioxidants and magnesium.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I teach special ed. I could name about 20 kids I have worked with who push against their foreheads and/or chin. My own son used to grab anyone's arm and try to bury his forehead in their upper arm. He would do it when frustrated or overstimulated, but it was not aggression. I have worked with asperger kids who know better than to do that because it will be seen as weird or aggressive, but they say things like, " my head is goinmg to explode " . None of this answers your question, but I wanted to comment that it is a commom occurance. I guess we need to hear from some high functioning adults to find outr what they are feeling. Headache? Euphoria? > > My grandson has just started to push his head hard into our chests and face.Is good natured and happy but likes to do this quite often. > What could be causing this? > Could anyone give us any suggestions? > Thanks > Joyce. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 A lot of the kids on these lists seem to do this. I came across a vet's website least week by chance that talked a lot about 'head pressing' in animals...pressing head against walls. If that's any comparison, you may be interested to know that the animals had high blood lead levels and the head pressing was attributed to lead-induced encephalopathy. My daughter used to pressing her head hard against my chest and also stood on her head a lot. She said it helped her head:-(( stemcellsugars3 schrieb: > > My grandson has just started to push his head hard into our chests and > face.Is good natured and happy but likes to do this quite often. > What could be causing this? > Could anyone give us any suggestions? > Thanks > Joyce. > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG - www.avg.com > Version: 8.5.432 / Virus Database: 270.14.136/2616 - Release Date: 01/12/10 07:35:00 > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
