Question

My daughter is now four years old! Sometimes she has a seizure every two or three months, and sometimes she has several seizures in a day! During a seizure, she just stares straight ahead, her limbs become rigid, and she trembles all over (lasting for a few seconds), but when she’s not having a seizure, she behaves just like a normal person, playing and eating, very cute!

Answer

Based on the symptoms you’ve described, the child experiences rigid limbs and whole-body convulsions during epilepsy seizures, and appears completely normal when not having a seizure. Frequent seizures may affect the child’s intelligence and memory. Since the child is quite young, it is recommended that you take her to the hospital for a detailed examination as soon as possible to determine the type and cause of epilepsy, so that targeted treatment can be initiated.
