Patient's question:
I often experience headaches and numbness all over my body. When doing things, I always have a tendency to look around with my eyes. Sometimes, I start trembling all over without moving. I frequently experience sudden convulsions again. My nerves are very tense, and sometimes I still have headaches. I always feel weak when doing things. After a thorough examination, I found out it's epilepsy, but I don't know what the principles of treating pediatric epilepsy are.Doctor's answer:
During a seizure, protective measures should be taken first to prevent accidents rather than administering medication immediately, to prevent injuries, falls, and collisions. Quickly have the patient lie down on the ground, and place a thick gauze-wrapped tongue depressor or a piece of gauze between the upper and lower molars to prevent biting the tongue and the fauces. Avoid forcefully pressing the convulsing limbs, as this may cause fractures. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
