Patient's question:
As a mother, the worst thing I don't want to see is my child suffering from illness. But unfortunately, my child has epilepsy and has seizures every day. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
1. Remove hard objects near the child, assist the child to lie on their side to facilitate the flow of saliva and maintain an open airway.2. If the child's mouth is open during a seizure, parents should quickly place a tongue depressor wrapped in gauze or a chopstick between the upper and lower teeth on one side of the child's mouth to prevent tongue biting.
3. After the child's convulsions stop, it may take several minutes, dozens of minutes, or even hours to return to normal. During this time, parents can change the child's wet clothes and underwear soaked in sweat or urine, and provide a comfortable environment for them to rest quietly.
