Question
What’s happening with the loss of speech syndrome triggered by epileptic seizures?
Answer
If this loss of speech syndrome is caused by an epileptic seizure, there is no need to worry too much. This condition usually improves gradually over a few days, as the temporary functional scar on the brain caused by the seizure can gradually stabilize. However, it is important to actively adjust the child’s antiepileptic medication, trying to reduce the frequency of recurrence to avoid affecting the growth and development of the nervous system and brain intelligence.
