Child rolling his eyes upward

In fact, rolling one's eyes upwards is a particularly common disease in children. Although it is not very serious, it is still better to receive timely treatment. Another common phenomenon of newborns is rolling their eyes. Because some parents don’t know what is going on, they are scared to death. So we still need to understand it. Today I will tell you what happens when children roll their eyes upwards.

Some mothers, when they see their baby rolling their eyes, think there is something wrong with their baby's brain and run to the hospital in fear. Upon asking, they find out that some babies will show some expressions when they are sleeping, that is, when they are unconscious, such as suddenly smiling with their mouths split open, or crying with their mouths pouting; sometimes rolling their eyes, and sometimes humming a few times. These are all related to the baby's organs that have not yet developed fully.

Generally speaking, this situation is not a big problem and may be caused by the child being overtired. Under normal circumstances, this is normal and it doesn't matter. When the child is 42 days old, take him to the hospital for a check-up. Make sure to get various vaccinations regularly, supplement with various nutrients, and strengthen the physical fitness to improve the condition. If you are breastfeeding, mothers need to be careful to avoid spicy foods.

A week ago, the child blinked with one eye, but now both eyes roll up. We may consider whether it has tics, which are motor or vocal muscle spasms that often occur in childhood. The main manifestations are involuntary movements. The affected parts and duration vary from person to person. The most common is a sudden, short, repetitive, stereotyped small twitches of one or several muscles, manifested as motor tics such as blinking, squinting, baring teeth, making funny faces, shrugging, turning the neck, nodding, shaking the head, turning the torso, swinging the arms, etc.; they may also be vocal tics such as coughing and clearing the throat. It usually worsens when you are emotionally nervous, decreases when you are concentrating, and disappears during sleep. The same symptom often predominates during a certain period of time, and sometimes it can be transformed into twitching of another group of muscles, that is, the variability of the symptoms. Children with this disease often suffer from psychological problems such as hyperactivity, difficulty concentrating, and poor sleep. It may be the result of the interaction of multiple factors. It can usually heal itself or through treatment in a short period of time. However, stubborn cases may last for several years or even into adulthood. It is best to go to the hospital's neurology department for a check-up.

Considering the possibility of inverted eyelashes, and the possibility of epilepsy cannot be ruled out, it is recommended that you take your child to an ophthalmologist for examination. If eye diseases are ruled out, it is possible that it is an epileptic seizure. You need to go to the neurology department to see a doctor for examination, and do relevant tests such as EEG to clarify the cause, and then do targeted treatment after the diagnosis is confirmed. Hope it helps!
