Is it easy to improve when a baby suffers from epilepsy?

Patient's question:

My baby is 5 months old. Recently, his eyes keep rolling up. When his eyes roll up, they squint like that, revealing the white part of the eyes. The same thing happens when he's feeding, always rolling up a few times, then it's fine. Is this a symptom of epilepsy? Is it serious? Is it easy to treat? / Is an EEG harmful to a child's body?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the main therapies for epilepsy currently include: brain heteroelectric holographic therapy, physical therapy, vagus nerve stimulation, psychological and cognitive function training, ketogenic diet therapy, Western medicine treatment, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, and surgical treatment, among others. It is necessary to comprehensively consider the patient's specific situation, seizure type, medical history, etc., to formulate an appropriate treatment plan.
We know that pediatric epilepsy can cause significant harm to children. If it is not treated in time or if the treatment method is incorrect, its progression is rapid, which can bring great harm to the child. Therefore, it is essential to seek professional medical treatment in a formal hospital in a timely manner, as this is the key.
