Patient's question:
My baby is now one year old. She often clenches her fists, pouts her lips, and shakes her head when she doesn't know if it's infantile spasms. The head-shaking amplitude isn't very large, just a few gentle sways, but it seems like she's exerting effort while shaking. The symptoms are also different. At first, it was a slight tilt to one side, not necessarily in any particular direction. Sometimes she would shake her head, and other times she would just pout and sway her head for a few seconds. The duration was very short, just a few seconds.Now, her development is completely normal, just like that of other babies her age. She is just a bit fussy and loves to cry when she's not satisfied. She talks nonstop all day, saying random things, and she can talk to anything she faces.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the clinical data you provided, it does not appear to be infantile spasms, and the clinical symptoms do not match.Advice: It is recommended to consult with a local pediatric neurology expert and undergo necessary laboratory tests, such as a 24-hour EEG. After evaluating the results, a corresponding treatment plan should be formulated.
