What are the symptoms of infantile epilepsy?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've noticed that my baby who is less than a year old is a bit different. For several consecutive days, he has had a low but persistent fever, and his hands and feet have been twitching at night. I'm very worried. I heard from others that these symptoms are somewhat similar to those of epilepsy. I'm not sure if that's the case.

Doctor's answer:

Because the baby will never answer back, it is necessary to pay close attention to the baby's reactions during daily life. For example, if low fever, twitching, vacant eyes, and stiff movements reappear, it is necessary to be highly vigilant. In addition to treating epilepsy, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and always maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process. It is important to rest properly and avoid spicy foods, while eating more fruits.
