Question
My child is 5 years old and has been suddenly waking up during sleep recently, looking very anxious, and speaking incoherently. They can talk to adults but lack clear thought, lasting about 2 minutes before falling back asleep. What could this be?
Answer
The baby may be experiencing cerebral ischemia, and it is necessary to have a head CT scan done without delay to seek early treatment. It is more suitable to consult a neurology department. We know that pediatric neurology diseases can have a significant impact on children. If not treated promptly or if the treatment method is incorrect, its progression can be rapid, posing great harm to the patient. Therefore, parents should pay more attention to their child’s condition and seek treatment promptly.
