How to care for epilepsy?

Patient's question:

The child is now six years old. Since birth, he has suffered from epilepsy. The doctor said it was caused by brain damage induced in the womb. He has several relapses every year now. In the past, his grandmother has always taken care of him. Now that he is about to start primary school, he has been brought closer. Most of the time, I am the one taking care of him. If the child has a recurrence, how should I care for him?

Doctor's answer:

Children's epilepsy care measures
1. During a seizure, lay the child flat, loosen the collar and belt, and never forcefully restrain the child. Place a mouth guard or a tongue depressor tightly wrapped in thick gauze between the child's upper and lower molars to prevent tongue bite. Always maintain an open airway, provide oxygen, and suction if necessary.
2. After defecation and drinking, adopt a right-side-lying position with the head tilted to one side.
3. Have a caregiver stay with the child to prevent sudden convulsions from causing accidents.
4. Administer anticonvulsant medication as prescribed by the doctor to control seizures. Ensure medication is given on time and in the correct dosage to maintain a stable blood drug concentration.
