Question
My baby suddenly had a seizure this morning and vomited white foam for several minutes before recovering. I am very worried that it might be pediatric epilepsy.
Answer
Hello, based on the symptoms and manifestations you described, as well as the examination results, the possibility of epilepsy cannot be ruled out. Epilepsy is caused by abnormal discharge in the brain. Mild epilepsy may show normal results in examinations. It is recommended that the patient take anti-epileptic medication and schedule a follow-up visit to a neurology department in half a month to assess the treatment situation of the medication. In case of any discomfort during medication, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination immediately. At the same time, regular observation should be strengthened, nutritional supplementation should be conducted reasonably, and measures for calming and soothing should be taken. Please avoid any form of stimulation to prevent exacerbation of symptoms.
