Ten-month-old baby nods

Patient's question:

About half a month ago, I noticed that the baby has been head-bobbing, sometimes one or two times, sometimes three times, mostly while playing.
Duration and frequency of the condition: Half a month
Current general condition: Can stand with support on the railing, can walk.
Medical history: Previous diagnosis and treatment history and effectiveness:
Auxiliary examinations: Calcium deficiency
Other: Because I have been looking it up online recently, I am worried it might be infantile spasms. I also want to know, besides head-bobbing, what other symptoms are associated with infantile spasms?

Doctor's answer:

Epilepsy is a clinical syndrome characterized by recurrent, brief episodes of brain dysfunction caused by various factors or etiologies such as brain and systemic diseases. The main clinical manifestations include recurrent episodes of impaired consciousness, convulsions, sensory, motor, mental abnormalities, or vegetative nervous system dysfunction.
Eliminate triggers: Prevent triggers such as high fever, alcohol consumption, fever, overexertion, insomnia, irregular diet, and photic/physical stimuli that may cause the disease.
For young children, it is best to use Depakine syrup combined with traditional Chinese medicine Guilong Nao Kang for treatment, which can quickly improve symptoms. If needed, you can contact directly for consultation.
