How to prevent epilepsy in children

1. Eliminating the triggers of childhood epileptic seizures is one of the important links in preventing the recurrence of childhood epilepsy, such as drinking and smoking environment, excessive fatigue of children, mental depression, overeating, infectious diseases, fever due to fright, sleep deprivation, harmful sound and light stimulation, etc.

2. For childhood epilepsy caused by genetic diseases, prenatal diagnosis should be carried out. If a fetus is found to have a certain genetic disease accompanied by childhood epilepsy, artificial abortion can be performed, which can reduce the occurrence of this type of childhood epilepsy.

3. About 15% of patients with febrile convulsions will develop epilepsy later. If there is a possibility of recurrence of febrile convulsions, preventive measures should be taken as early as possible, which can greatly reduce the brain damage caused by febrile convulsions and reduce the incidence of epilepsy.

Pregnant women should minimize exposure to radiation products and avoid inducements

4. When pregnant, mothers should avoid triggers and not take medicine blindly. If you are sick, be sure to take medicine carefully under the guidance of a doctor. Because some drugs have teratogenic effects, especially in the first three months of pregnancy, the teratogenic effects of drugs are particularly prominent. Avoid excessive exposure to radiation. Various types of radiation (including X-rays, gamma rays, and radiation from household appliances, televisions, and computers) may cause congenital developmental defects to the fetus. Therefore, pregnant women should try to avoid working and living in high-radiation environments.
