Question
My son is 11 years old. Recently, when I scolded him or he was very introverted and slow, he started to feel like an electric shock throughout his body and head. There was a change in the ST segment of the ECG for 24 hours, but the levels of myocardial enzymes and troponin were normal, as was the blood lead level. There was one slow wave in the 24-hour EEG, which the doctor said was normal, and no epilepsy waves were detected. He had 4 episodes in 16 days. What could be the cause?
Answer
Case Analysis: Besides the sensation of electricity throughout the body and head, are there any other clinical symptoms? Guidance: There are many possible causes for abnormal sensations. The typical seizure is characterized by sudden loss of consciousness. Whether it is epilepsy or not should be determined by looking at the EEG. We know that hydrocephalus in children can cause significant harm. If it is not treated promptly or if the treatment method is incorrect, its progression can be very rapid, posing great harm to young children. Therefore, parents should pay more attention to their child’s condition and seek treatment promptly.
