Patient's question:
The child was happily playing at home at ten in the morning. Later, after about half an hour, the child said they were sleepy and then started drooling and rolling their eyes, experiencing spasms. Last year, a low fever led to spasms, drooling, and spasms that lasted for two hours. This time, the spasms lasted for about one hour. The child is now at the hospital having an electroencephalogram, which showed only one abnormal wave pattern. The child is severely calcium deficient. They want to know if the child might have epilepsy. No family members or relatives have this condition.Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering the symptoms caused by epilepsy, such as body twitching, foaming at the mouth, and confusion, it is recommended to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive excitement, eat less stimulating foods, pay attention to rest and warmth, and seek professional treatment when necessary, which may improve the condition. The above advice is for the question "Child playing happily at home at 10 a.m. and then foaming at the mouth and seizing?" I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
