Question

Our child has been experiencing symptoms of corner of the mouth twitching and drooling, which have been observed four times this year; this was never noticed before. Could this be an epilepsy seizure? The hospital examination did not find any abnormalities.

Answer

Hello, based on the symptom description, it is highly possible that this is an epilepsy seizure. We suggest going to the hospital for an EEG examination. The main treatment for epilepsy is medication, with Keppra being a medication with relatively mild side effects. There are various methods for treating epilepsy, including surgical treatment, medication, and neurostimulation therapy, with neurostimulation therapy being the most advanced and effective treatment method currently available.
