What are the specific triggers of childhood epilepsy?

Patient's question:

What are the specific causes of childhood epilepsy? My child had another seizure during dinner today, and it has been happening more frequently recently. What should I do? The kind of help I need: What are the specific causes of childhood epilepsy?

Doctor's answer:

Epilepsy-inducing factors include prolonged watching TV and using computers, which is one of the factors that can trigger epilepsy. For the general public, prolonged TV watching or computer use may only cause visual fatigue, but for epilepsy patients, it may lead to epilepsy. High fever above 39℃ is a common epilepsy-inducing factor, especially for children. Children's nervous system development is not complete, and sometimes moderate fever above 38℃ can also be an epilepsy-inducing factor.
