Question
The baby showed symptoms of clenched fists and tight biting on October 3rd, lasting for about 6-7 seconds. On October 5th, the same symptoms occurred four times. On October 6th, a medical examination was conducted, and abnormal discharges were found in the electroencephalogram (EEG), while no abnormalities were found in the computer tomography (CT) scan. At 6:40 AM on October 13th, two similar seizures occurred, each lasting 2-3 seconds. Inquire whether these symptoms indicate an epileptic seizure and what possible treatment methods are available.
Answer
The main treatment methods for epilepsy include brain holographic treatment, physical therapy, vagus nerve stimulation, psychological cognitive function training, ketogenic diet therapy, medication treatment (Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine), and surgical treatment, among others. The treatment plan needs to be formulated based on the patient’s specific condition, type of seizure, and medical history, among other factors. Epilepsy can have severe effects on children, and if not treated promptly and correctly, the condition may rapidly worsen, causing serious harm to young children. Therefore, it is recommended to seek professional medical treatment as soon as possible.
