Patient's question:
A little kid from my friend's family, who looks normal on a daily basis, suddenly had a high fever one month ago at night. Because the fever wasn't reduced in time, he started having convulsions all over his body. He was saved at the hospital, but not long after, the same symptoms appeared again, along with foam coming out of his mouth. The doctor said it was infantile epilepsy.Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are conscious disturbances, episodic perceptual disturbances, sleepwalking states, etc. There is often "automatism," which is involuntary actions under conscious disturbances. Complex partial seizures can begin with simple partial seizures and then progress to conscious disturbances, or they may have conscious disturbances from the onset. They can be seen in temporal lobe or frontal lobe epilepsy. EEG shows focal discharges in the temporal and frontal regions during seizures.
