Question

If a child’s parents had seizures when they were young, does this condition have the potential to be inherited by the next generation?

Answer

Generally speaking, parents’ seizures typically only affect them and are unlikely to be passed on to their children. However, there may be a genetic predisposition for certain neurological types. It is recommended that when a child has a cold with fever, attention should be paid to avoid high body temperature and to treat it promptly, including anti-inflammatory and antipyretic measures. At the same time, strengthen the child’s immunity to prevent catching a cold. Moreover, we know that pediatric epilepsy can have a significant impact on children. If not treated promptly or if the treatment method is inappropriate, the condition may worsen rapidly, causing severe harm to the child. Therefore, it is suggested to seek treatment at a professional hospital as soon as possible.
