Question

What are the causes of seizures? If a child has been experiencing this condition for some time, how should parents respond, and is medication treatment necessary?

Answer

Pediatric seizures can indeed have an impact on child health, so proactive prevention is an effective measure to protect child health. Prevention methods mainly include: (1) Strengthening care and physical exercise for children, ensuring indoor ventilation, allowing children to spend more time outdoors to adapt to the environment, and reduce the occurrence of infectious diseases. (2) Paying attention to a balanced diet. (3) Rational use of medication, preventing children from accidentally ingesting toxic drugs. (4) Strengthening supervision, avoiding children from hitting their heads and causing brain trauma, and never arbitrarily striking children’s heads. If seizures persist, immediate medical treatment should be sought.
