Patient's question:
Recently, my young niece has been exhibiting many strange behaviors, being more hyperactive, and occasionally experiencing multiple mild twitching symptoms. After looking into the situation of ADHD, it seems quite similar to her current condition. What is ADHD in children? If she gets this condition, what is the best way to treat it?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms your child is experiencing could be indicative of a state of petit mal epilepsy. Whether it is ADHD requires taking the child to the hospital for additional physical examinations and further tests to verify. If it is indeed this condition, it is advisable to choose medications that nourish brain cells and sedatives for symptomatic treatment. In daily dietary habits, it is important to limit snack consumption and avoid exposure to stimulating chemical substances.
