Patient's question:
My son is six years old. Two months ago, he started blinking, then his mouth corner twitched. Later, the twitching stopped, but he still has severe white-eye flickering.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to first go to the hospital for an electroencephalogram (EEG) to check. If the EEG shows spikes, sharp waves, or other epileptic discharges, the diagnosis of epilepsy becomes more definitive. After confirming the condition, appropriate treatment plans can be adopted based on the specific situation. We know that pediatric epilepsy can cause significant harm to children. If it is not treated promptly or if the treatment method is incorrect, the condition can progress rapidly, causing great harm to the patient. Therefore, parents should pay close attention to their child's condition and seek timely medical treatment.
