Patient's question:
The child was recently diagnosed with epilepsy, and is now taking medication. I don't know what to do when he has a seizure, and how to provide first aid?Doctor's answer:
Hello, first of all, as an emergency responder, you should remain calm. First, lay the person with epilepsy flat on their back, face down, with their head turned to one side, usually to the right. Then check if their breathing is stable and check their airway to prevent obstruction. If there is any secretions in their nose, you need to clean it accordingly. As a parent, you should pay attention to observing the symptoms and duration of your child's epilepsy seizures as a basis for the doctor's analysis. Additionally, early treatment of epilepsy is key. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
