Question
What physical discomforts might a child experience during an epileptic seizure? My child often feels like vomiting lately, and although there hasn’t been a seizure for a while, I’m worried this might be a sign of an impending recurrence. How can I help my child?
Answer
Before an epileptic seizure, a child may experience symptoms such as altered consciousness, fatigue, nausea, and possibly premonitory signs. It is recommended to take the child to a neurology department in the hospital, continue with antiepileptic medication, and observe if there is any relation to food poisoning. Usually, these symptoms do not last for several days. I hope these suggestions can help you, and wish your child good health!
