Question
Is pediatric epilepsy treatable? I have observed many children around one year old with seizures, which manifest as weak sounds, body convulsions, and sometimes foamy saliva. How should we prevent pediatric epilepsy?
Answer
Epilepsy is caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain and is difficult to treat. Most patients use oral medications to control the frequency of seizures, sometimes achieving good control. Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder with a long treatment cycle. Currently, medication control is mainly used in our country to achieve the purpose of controlling and treating epilepsy. Generally, this disease should not be discontinued at will; it is recommended to use medication under the guidance of a doctor.
