Why do children suffer from epilepsy

summary

My cousin's son is five years old this year. He got a kind of disease. When he got sick, he would lie on the ground and twitch all over the body. He still had words in his mouth. His body was stiff and he lost consciousness. The scene was very terrible. The doctor said it was Capricorn. Now I'll tell you why children suffered from Capricorn.

Why do children suffer from epilepsy

First: trauma: brain injury is a common cause of infantile symptomatic epilepsy. Contusion, hemorrhage and ischemia can also lead to local brain tissue softening and become epileptic focus in the future. About 5% of adults with closed brain trauma have epilepsy, and 30% of adults with severe and open brain trauma have epilepsy.

Second: febrile convulsion: severe or frequent febrile convulsion in childhood is easy to cause local cerebral hypoxia or edema, and then form epileptic focus and cause disease. One of the scariest things about it is that children can also suffer from it, and it is also a major group of people who suffer from it.

Third: congenital diseases: such as chromosomal abnormalities, inherited metabolic disorders, brain malformations and congenital hydrocephalus. Infection: in all kinds of encephalitis, meningitis, brain abscess acute phase of congestion, edema, the influence of toxins and blood exudates can cause seizures, scar and adhesion formed after recovery may also become epileptic focus.
