Question

What symptoms might a five-month-old baby exhibit if they have epilepsy? What tests are needed to accurately rule out or diagnose it?

The typical symptom of epilepsy is convulsions.Guidance: It is recommended to first determine the cause. If necessary, visit a hospital for examination and analysis, and then proceed with effective treatment based on the underlying cause to improve the symptoms.
