Patient's question:
My child started showing symptoms at 6 months old. When having an episode, their face and mouth turn blue, their hands are clenched tightly, and their legs are straightened. After the episode, they experience weakness in all four limbs and then fall asleep. I would like to ask if this could be epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
It could be epilepsy. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up, have an electroencephalogram (EEG), and ensure that the electrocardiogram (ECG) is normal, the brain CT is normal, and a routine EEG is performed to determine the condition. Early treatment should be administered after the diagnosis is confirmed.
