How to care for children with epilepsy

Patient's question:

Hello, my child, who has been smart and clever since childhood. The family has placed great hopes on him. However, in a car accident, an unfortunate incident occurred, and he also developed epilepsy. As parents, I still don't know how to take care of him.

Doctor's answer:

Epilepsy Care: When epilepsy patients go out, they must always carry an epilepsy treatment card with them to facilitate emergency aid and timely communication with family members. Do not travel until the condition is basically under control. After the condition is stabilized, travel must be accompanied by family members who are familiar with the condition and skilled in care, and emergency medication must be carried at all times to promptly handle any episodes. Pay attention to diet, ensure adequate sleep, avoid overexertion, and prohibit visiting dangerous areas, such as cliffs, hazardous rocks, or being too close to rivers or reservoirs. Avoid visiting eerie and terrifying adventure palaces with strange lights and loud noises, as these can stimulate sensory perception. Do not take baths to prevent sudden episodes that could lead to drowning.
