Infantile spasms are actually a special type of epilepsy during infancy, with complex and diverse causes, such as birth injuries, neonatal respiratory problems, and viral encephalitis. This condition often involves generalized convulsions and can negatively impact a child’s mental and motor development. However, timely medical intervention can significantly reduce the severity of brain damage. Studies show that over 90% of children may experience mental and motor impairments or regression after onset. Therefore, early identification and treatment are crucial for improving outcomes. Although Western medicine treatment may come with some side effects, long-term use of anti-epileptic drugs can largely alleviate these symptoms.
