Patient's question:
My child often feels dizzy and even faints. Others say my child might have epilepsy. I'm upset because my child is only 12 years old. Doctor, is my child really suffering from epilepsy? What is epilepsy? How serious is it? Is the treatment troublesome?Doctor's answer:
It doesn't necessarily mean it's epilepsy. Epilepsy is caused by abnormal discharges of brain neurons, and it's a relatively serious condition that can be quite troublesome during treatment. It is recommended to promptly visit the neurology department of a hospital for a follow-up examination to conduct targeted and thorough checks. This will help clarify the diagnosis and then proceed with symptomatic treatment. Don't have too much psychological pressure. The reasons for dizziness or fainting are very complex and may not necessarily be caused by epilepsy. Targeted and thorough checks can help confirm the diagnosis and then proceed with symptomatic treatment.
