Patient's question:
The baby is three years old this year. Recently, there have been panic symptoms and loud shouting, with rigid body movements that cannot be restrained for ten to twelve times a day. However, the baby is conscious and aware of everything. The symptoms are worse during naps. Brain (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), trace elements, blood tests, and vitamin tests were all normal. Could this be caused by nerve stimulation?Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy is a chronic brain disorder caused by various different causes, characterized by excessive neuronal firing leading to recurrent, repetitive, and transient dysfunction of the central nervous system. Epilepsy can occur in people of any age, region, and race, but it is more prevalent in children and adolescents. Currently, psychomotor seizures cannot be ruled out. It is recommended to seek a follow-up consultation in the neurology department of a Class III hospital for a thorough examination to avoid delaying the condition.
