Question
Our child has epilepsy, and we are very worried. How can we treat pediatric epilepsy to achieve effective results?
Answer
If a child has been diagnosed with pediatric epilepsy and has had multiple seizures, immediate treatment should begin to avoid seizure-related brain damage. If the child does not have any obvious organic brain diseases and the cause of the illness cannot be found temporarily, and if the first seizure is not severe, medication can be temporarily avoided, but close observation is necessary. If there are further seizures, medication should be started. For children with benign pediatric epilepsy, observation can be the primary approach after the first seizure, followed by appropriate treatment based on the progression of the condition.
