Patient's question:
.5 My child has been suffering from infantile spasms for eight years. Is there any good medication for it? Currently, he experiences seizures after waking up every day, characterized by nodding with a vacant stare and his hands in a hugging position. Each nod lasts for a second, and after waking up, he may nod dozens of times.Doctor's answer:
From the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Yang Qi refers to the vital energy that, when abundant, can both invigorate the spirit and soften the tendons and muscles. It is likely caused by an imbalance of Yin and Yang in one's constitution.Recommendation: If Western medicine control is ineffective, for long-term treatment, appropriate use of Traditional Chinese Medicine can be considered. However, in emergency situations, Western medicine should still be the primary treatment.
