Question

Hello, my child is a 2-year-old boy. He had a seizure three months ago. He has now undergone an EEG and it was diagnosed as epilepsy. He fell and hit his head with three needles six months ago. Is this the cause? Sometimes his hands and feet move during sleep.

Answer

The epilepsy is likely due to the head injury. It is recommended to persist with treatment. It would be best to have a cranial CT scan done. It could also be due to a decrease in immune ability. It is suggested to use immunomodulators. Appropriately increase some physical activity. Meanwhile, maintain a calm state of mind. Reduce the child’s crying and fussing. The current situation may require enhanced healthcare. Additionally, it may be necessary to combine clinical brain MRI scans for confirmation. It is advisable to follow the advice of the treating physician.
