Question
What is pediatric epilepsy?
Answer
Pediatric epilepsy is a disorder characterized by sudden, recurrent, and transient brain dysfunction caused by abnormal excessive discharge of neurons in the brain. Clinical symptoms vary, with the most common being consciousness impairment or loss of consciousness, sudden collapse, convulsions of the limbs, upward rolling of the eyes, drooling, and incontinence of urine and feces. With children being so young, it’s best to go to the hospital for a check-up and receive symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication.
