Doctor's answer:
An eight-year-old child has had another episode of generalized convulsions. If the child was not feverish at the time, we should first consider whether the child might have epilepsy. It is necessary to take the child to the hospital as soon as possible for a head CT or MRI examination. In addition to a dynamic EEG examination, once epilepsy is diagnosed, it will require long-term medication to control the seizures. At the same time, we must rule out other causes such as hypoglycemia and electrolyte disorders. If the child has a fever accompanied by the above symptoms, we should consider whether it could be due to high fever seizures or meningitis.
