Patient's question:
My child has epilepsy. In September, a cyst was found in the brain with a size of 0.9 to 1 cm. I want to know if the cyst is related to it. I urgently want to know how many methods there are for treating epilepsy and what are the symptoms of pediatric epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
1. Stroke: When a stroke occurs, the body experiences numbness, and the limbs may exhibit convulsions. Strange noises may come from the mouth. The main difference from epilepsy is that it can cause hemiplegia.2. Fainting: This is easily confused with epilepsy. The symptoms of dizziness are usually brief, involving temporary loss of consciousness, a feeling of weakness and exhaustion throughout the body, and recovery after a short rest.
3. Mental illness: This is relatively common in daily life. Patients often like to talk to themselves and may stand in front of people in disheveled clothes.
