Question

A child is experiencing irregular hand and foot twitches and eye rolling, occurring approximately once a month, and the parents are suspicious whether these are symptoms of epilepsy.

Answer

Hello, thank you for seeking medical advice. Based on the symptoms you have described, it may be a manifestation of epilepsy. We recommend that you bring the child back for a Brain Electroencephalogram examination, especially during an episode, as this usually provides evidence for a definitive diagnosis.
