Conversion Disorder

Conversion disorder in children and adolescents involves experiencing physical symptoms like paralysis or seizures without medical cause. It's often triggered by stress or trauma and requires a multidisciplinary approach combining medical, psychological, and rehabilitative interventions for effective treatment.
