Patient's question:
The baby is 4 years old. This body is not comfortable, and I don't know what's wrong. I'm very scared. Please ask: What are the early symptoms of pediatric epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
Overall, as long as the symptoms meet the basic definition of epilepsy, which is recurrent symptoms caused by abnormal pulses of nerve cells in the brain, it is considered a recurrence of epilepsy in children. However, many subtle symptoms may also be indicative of childhood epilepsy. Additionally, some early symptoms of childhood epilepsy include changes in personality and episodes of mental confusion. Apart from many manifestations similar to sleep disorders such as night terrors and sleepwalking, this is not a typical seizure, and it requires confirmation from an electroencephalogram (EEG). This situation must be paid attention to, as a recurrence period EEG is necessary for diagnosis.
