Question
My child is two and a half years old and has been experiencing symptoms similar to epilepsy seizures, which have become more frequent. Examination has revealed brain nerve damage. The child has been taking vitamin B complex and calcium gluconate supplements, but the duration and frequency of the seizures have increased. The face and limbs may twitch, and sometimes there is vomiting of white foam. I am worried that the child may have developed epilepsy and am seeking medical advice.
Answer
It is recommended to undergo an MRI scan, as surgery can sometimes be used to restore normal function. It is suggested to bring the child to a large, third-grade hospital’s neurosurgery department for examination to see if surgery can be used to reduce the frequency of epilepsy seizures.
