Question
A one-year-old baby frequently displays actions of clenching their fists and grimacing while shaking their head. The parents are worried whether these actions are symptoms of infantile convulsions. The baby’s head shakes are not significant, sometimes tilting to one side, and at other times just a slight movement. Accompanied by the grimacing action, the symptoms seem inconsistent. Additionally, the baby’s temperament is more prone to crying and fussing when not satisfied. The baby’s language development is normal, and they can chatter at any object as if talking.
Answer
Based on the parent’s description, the baby’s condition does not match the clinical symptoms of infantile convulsions. Guidance: It is recommended that parents consult a local pediatric neurologist for necessary examinations, such as a 24-hour EEG, to conduct a health assessment and formulate an appropriate treatment plan based on the examination results.
