Patient's question:
What does "low seizure threshold" mean in epilepsy? Is motion sickness (or seasickness) considered a "low seizure threshold"?Doctor's answer:
The genetic susceptibility of the body, i.e., a low convulsion threshold; everyone has a convulsion threshold they are born with, some are high, and some are low. In certain environments, people with a low "convulsion threshold" may experience episodes. Motion sickness is not the same as seasickness and does not fall under "low convulsion threshold." We know that convulsions in newborns can cause significant harm to children. If they are not treated promptly or if the treatment methods are incorrect, the condition can progress rapidly, causing great harm to the child. Therefore, parents should pay close attention to their child's condition and seek timely medical treatment.
