Does my child have epilepsy?Hurry!Hurry!Hurry! 5

Pediatric epilepsy, commonly known as "epilepsy" or "epilepsy", is a chronic disease in which neurons in the brain suddenly and abnormally discharge, resulting in transient brain dysfunction.

Symptoms of epilepsy:

1. Grand mal seizure: the patient will suddenly lose consciousness, followed by falling, and then there are those manifestations that everyone knows well, such as convulsions, foaming at the mouth, incontinence and so on. The whole body is stiff and will recover on its own within a few minutes.

2. There are two manifestations of petit mal seizures, one is absence petit mal seizures, and the second is myoclonus petit mal seizures. Minor seizures of absence are manifested as stunned, unable to breathe, speech interrupted, and if there is something in the hand, it will fall, and the duration is about tens of seconds. Myoclonus petit seizures are characterized by transient myoclonus of the face, upper extremities, and neck.

3. Localized seizures: transient convulsions or numbness on one side of the face or one side of the body. Sometimes these tics extend from the ends of the limbs to the opposite side.

4. Psychomotor seizures, similar to small seizures of absence, but will last for a long time, hallucinations, delusions, and some unconscious actions such as chewing, sucking, etc.

Epilepsy and cerebral palsy are two different things. Cerebral palsy refers to a type of non-progressive brain injury caused by a variety of causes from birth to one month after birth. Cerebral palsy generally does not have convulsions and there is no intellectual disability.

Asphyxia, preterm birth, and jaundice are the three common risk factors for cerebral palsy. Early muscle function exercises and good care as well as comprehensive** and education are necessary. Cerebral palsy can be classified as spastic, pyramidal, hypotonic, ataxia, and mixed.

However, about 20% of cerebral palsy will be accompanied by convulsions and mental retardation, which may be related to a common organic pathological basis of the brain. In view of the child's current situation, it is necessary to do a basic EEG to see, if the EEG has epileptic waves, spikes, and sharp waves, it is more clear to diagnose epilepsy. If you have any questions, please click me for further consultation.

According to the symptoms you described, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the child's condition is not calcium deficiency, and the symptoms are more in line with the clinical characteristics of epileptic seizures, and can be diagnosed as pediatric epilepsy. Pediatric epilepsy does not advocate Western medicine for anti-epilepsy**, because Western medicine may affect the child's brain development. Therefore, it is recommended that you use traditional Chinese medicine to **, Chinese medicine can slowly repair the damaged cranial nerves, and can fundamentally achieve both the symptoms and the root cause.

Premature birth, asphyxia and severe jaundice in children, these are risk factors for pediatric epilepsy, combined with your examination results, I think you go to the hospital for the examination is very responsible, if you rule out trace element deficiency, your baby does have the possibility of epilepsy, it is recommended to have an electroencephalogram to take a look.

Definitely not epilepsy. It can be observed for a period of time, and some patients do not have problems with the examination, mainly symptoms.

Do an EEG to see if there are any abnormal discharges in the brain!

Definitely not epilepsy.

Maybe it's a ghost. Find a goddess to take a look...

Do an EEG to see if there are any abnormal discharges in the brain!

No, pass by and help with the top I wish you a speed**.

The child is 9 months old and has fever in both convulsions, and petulic seizures, that is, convulsions during fever, should be considered first. It is more common under the age of 3, and it is natural to get older.

The key now is to prevent fever, pay attention to your temperature every day, and use antipyretics (triumerin or Tylenol) as soon as you have a fever

Some abnormalities on the EEG are not an absolute basis for diagnosing epilepsy.

The following is some information about levetiracetam for reference.

The recommended crude and uncoded dose for adolescents and children is 10 mg kg twice daily initially, with a maximum of 30 mg kg twice daily. For children under 20 kg, oral solution should be used initially** for precise dose adjustment.

As long as you find the right hospital, distinguish the type, and the method is accurate, about 80% of patients can be fully controlled.

The main clinical symptoms of epilepsy are briefly listed for you as follows:

1.Generalized tonic-clonic seizures (grand mal seizures): sudden loss of consciousness, followed by tonic followed by clonic spasms.

It is often accompanied by screaming, bluish complexion, urinary incontinence, tongue bites, foaming at the mouth or blood foam, and dilated pupils. After lasting tens of seconds or minutes, the seizures naturally stop and you enter a lethargic state. After waking up, he has a short period of dizziness, irritability, and fatigue, and cannot recall the seizure.

If seizures persist, people who remain in a coma are called grand mal status and are often life-threatening.

2.Absence seizures (petit mals): sudden interruption of mental activity, loss of consciousness, possibly myoclonus, or automatism. A few seconds to more than 10 seconds at a time. EEG showed 3 seconds of spikes or sharp slow wave synthesis.

3.Simple partial imitation seizures: tonic seizures, clonic seizures, or epiesthesias of one limb in one part or one limb, which last for a short period of time and are clearly conscious.

If the seizure extends along the motor zone to other limbs or throughout the body, it may be accompanied by loss of consciousness, called a Jackson seizure. Temporary paralysis of the affected limb after an attack is called Todd's palsy.

4.Complex partial seizures (psychomotor seizures): psychosensory, psychomotor, and mixed seizures.

There are many different degrees of impairment of consciousness and significant thinking, perceptual, emotional, and psychomotor disorders. There may be automatism such as fugue and nocturnal wandering. Sometimes, under the control of hallucinations and delusions, violent behaviors such as hurting others and self-harm can occur.

5.Autonomic seizures (diencephaly): may be headache, abdominal pain, limbalgi, syncope, or cardiovascular.

6.Those with no clear ** are primary epilepsy, and those secondary to intracranial tumors, trauma, infections, parasitic diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, systemic metabolic diseases, etc.

How can I get help:

1. Can epilepsy be ruled out if there is no abnormality in brain waves during seizures? No.

2. How do you need to continue with Chongtan**, it is better to see what department scatters your fingers? Neurology or epilepsy.

3. Is it very bad for children to have such frequent convulsions? Not good.

4. Can I upload the video information at the time of the seizure? No, it mainly depends on the patient.

Recently, I was diagnosed with epilepsy by a child like mine, the daughter of my friend. Three major hospitals have consulted successively. Symptoms disappear after taking the medication.
