Patient's question:
What are the early symptoms of epilepsy in children?Doctor's answer:
The molecular mechanism of epilepsy is the structural or functional changes in ion channels or related molecules.It is characterized by sudden loss of consciousness and generalized tonic-clonic seizures. A typical seizure process can be divided into the tonic phase, clonic phase, and postictal phase. A single seizure usually lasts less than 5 minutes and is often accompanied by injuries such as tongue-biting or incontinence, and can easily lead to asphyxiation. Tonic-clonic seizures can occur in any type of epilepsy or epilepsy syndrome.
