Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Can you please tell me if there are any aftereffects after a baby has a high fever seizure?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this condition can be considered as epilepsy. An electroencephalogram (EEG) can be performed to aid in diagnosis. The main symptoms include behavioral abnormalities accompanied by convulsions, and in severe cases, loss of consciousness. Carbamazepine tablets can be used for treatment, and gamma knife treatment may be necessary if needed. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.According to the symptoms you described, from a traditional Chinese medicine perspective, it is considered that the baby may have spleen deficiency and low immunity. Based on the baby's condition, it is recommended to give the baby Tong Kang Pian (a traditional Chinese medicine formula). Additionally, it is suggested to perform daily back massage (nǐ jǐ) treatments for the baby, supplement with zinc, and consume 3-5 American almonds or cashews daily. Pay attention to physical exercise.
