Question
Age: Two and a half Detailed medical history and purpose of consultation: A two-and-a-half-year-old child lost consciousness suddenly due to fever that did not fully recover when he was one year old, and recovered after emergency treatment. However, a few days ago, the child had a similar episode while playing, collapsing without any apparent warning, and was diagnosed with fever-induced symptoms. The parents inquire whether these symptoms could be manifestations of epilepsy and seek treatment suggestions.
Answer
Based on the analysis of these symptoms, epilepsy is suspected. Epileptic seizures may be preceded by sudden screaming, loss of consciousness, falling, upward eye rolling or squinting, foaming at the mouth, clenching of the jaw, and generalized convulsions. There are many methods to treat epilepsy currently, and patients should also receive symptomatic treatment during the disease treatment process. It is recommended to go to a regular professional hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible.
