Question
Do headaches and dizziness in children sometimes relate to epilepsy?
Answer
Epileptic seizures occur due to excessive synchronization of discharge in brain neurons, leading to temporary brain dysfunction. This process may be accompanied by various forms of painful episodes. Epilepsy is a chronic, recurrent, and remitting disorder of brief brain function characterized by recurrent, pain-related seizures caused by abnormal neuronal discharge. Epilepsy itself is not a standalone disease but a combination of various diseases or syndromes. Age: The prevalence of different specific types of epilepsy is closely related to age. For example, infantile spasms typically occur within 1 year of age, childhood absence epilepsy often occurs between the ages of 6 and 7, and myoclonic epilepsy tends to occur during adolescence. Between 60% and 80% of epilepsy patients have their first onset before the age of 20, but the etiology varies among different age groups.
