Question
The little boy next door, I once saw him spitting white foam, his limbs moving wildly, and his eyes rolling upwards. It seemed like he had lost all consciousness at that moment; it was a severe seizure. Sometimes I’ve seen him making swallowing and chewing motions with nothing in his mouth, looking blankly around with a dazed expression. Even when there are no obstacles on the path, he would mysteriously trip and fall. What kind of help do I need? Are these symptoms indicative of pediatric epilepsy? If so, how should it be treated?
Answer
I suggest using a combination of traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. These herbs have the effects of reinforcing the body’s resistance, expelling pathogenic factors, calming the mind and soothing the nerves, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, dispelling dampness and cooling the blood, awakening the brain and transforming nature, strengthening the spleen and replenishing Qi, and nourishing essence and marrow. The effective ingredients can penetrate the blood-brain barrier and directly act on the lesion, inhibiting abnormal impulses in brain tissue cells, competing and inhibiting with neurotrophic receptors, while also repairing damaged brain nerve cells to fundamentally treat epilepsy seizures.
