Patient's question:
My daughter is four years old this year! She sometimes has attacks every two or three months, and sometimes several times a day! When she has an attack, her eyes are fixed forward, her hands are stiff, and her whole body trembles (only for three or five seconds). When she is not having an attack, she is normal, can play, can eat, and is very cute!Doctor's answer:
From the symptoms you mentioned, stiffness in both hands, spasms all over the body, and so on are all symptoms of a seizure during epilepsy. At the same time, people with epilepsy appear no different from others when they are not having a seizure—they are the same as normal people. However, frequent seizures may affect the patient's intelligence, memory, and so on. The child is still quite young, so it is important to take them to the hospital for a thorough examination as soon as possible. After identifying the type of epilepsy, the cause, and other factors, targeted treatment can be provided.
