Question
Is it severe for a baby to have epilepsy and brain developmental disorders?
Answer
An infant’s epilepsy is caused by brain developmental disorders, often accompanied by symptoms such as consciousness impairment, limb convulsions, and foaming at the mouth. Sometimes, the symptoms are atypical and may affect sitting and normal living. It is necessary to undergo detailed examinations as soon as possible to determine the severity of the condition, and to treat it with symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication such as sodium valproate syrup while avoiding mental stimulation.
