Patient's question:
My cousin said that her friend just had a baby last year, but she mentioned that her friend has been acting strangely lately sometimes. She suddenly jerks, and sometimes she walks leaning to one side. She wants to ask the doctor if this could be encephalitis?Doctor's answer:
The situation described by the patient may be related to the baby being relatively young and the various systems of the body not having fully developed yet. If the situation you mentioned has been ongoing for a while, it is recommended to first take the child to the pediatric department of the hospital for a thorough examination. Based on the results of the examination, it would be better to consult with the patient's primary physician. Currently, based solely on the patient's interpretation, a definitive diagnosis cannot be made.
