Patient's question:
A 3.5-year-old child, who previously had febrile seizures, experienced only one episode of convulsions each time with fever. However, this time during a fever, they had six repeated convulsions. Upon careful examination, it was found that sodium levels were low, and the CT results were abnormal. Is this an electroencephalogram (EEG) or a brain topography result? What is this disease?Doctor's answer:
Febrile seizures are generally caused by convulsions that recur during a fever. They may occur once during a course of illness, and a small portion may potentially develop into epilepsy!Recommendation: If recurrent convulsions occur again, it is necessary to rule out intracranial infection and perform a cerebrospinal fluid examination. After ruling out intracranial infection, if epilepsy is considered, regular use of antiepileptic drugs is required!
Wishing the patient a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
