How to provide daily care for children with epilepsy

Patient's question:

Recently, my child's epilepsy has recurred. Sometimes he experiences cyanosis, incontinence, bitten tongue, foaming at the mouth or blood foam, and dilated pupils. It causes immense worry.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is essential for children with epilepsy to always pay attention to safety because seizures can occur at any time before they are fully controlled. Therefore, swimming, climbing, cycling, and playing near rivers are strictly prohibited. When crossing the street, traffic rules must be followed to prevent accidents.
Balance rest and activity. If the child with epilepsy has normal intelligence, they should attend school. Daily life should be regular, ensuring adequate rest and sleep. Avoid harmful factors, such as overeating, excessive fatigue, or excessive excitement, which can trigger seizures. These are all important aspects of daily care for children with epilepsy.
