Excuse me, who knows what shade is

When you say "yin", you mean cramps, and cramps in children are the most terrible. They are light and heavy, and their lives are on the line. It's no exaggeration, and there are symptoms of white eyes.

Cramp is the most worrying disease for parents in childhood. On the one hand, the symptoms are frightening; On the other hand, if it is not handled quickly and properly, it will also lead to adverse consequences and even death.

There are many reasons for convulsions, and the forms of convulsions are often different. Some of them are temporary, they attack quickly and disappear quickly, and there will be no adverse consequences in the future, and they will not be repeated. Parents don't need to worry too much about this convulsion; But other convulsions occur for a long time and can occur continuously. If not treated early, it will do great harm to the child's body and mind. This paper only briefly introduces several diseases that often cause convulsions in childhood. If parents encounter similar diseases, you can refer to them.

The causes of convulsions vary with age. Generally speaking, in the neonatal period after birth, birth injury and congenital brain malformation are the most common causes, and the common causes are inflammatory diseases of the brain (encephalitis, meningitis, etc. ), drug effects and electrolyte imbalance. After 6 months to 2 years old, febrile convulsions are the most common, followed by inflammatory diseases of the brain, and other diseases are even less. Between 2 and 6 years old, brain inflammatory diseases are the most common, followed by epilepsy. The most common cause after 6 times is epilepsy. Therefore, according to the age difference, we can first consider the most likely occurrence of a certain disease to make a quick diagnosis.

Below we will distinguish the most common diseases of all ages from the medical history and symptoms, as follows:

First, birth injury: Most convulsions caused by birth injury can be traced back to the history of dystocia during childbirth, or there are trauma or suffocation and cyanosis at birth. The duration and form of seizures vary with the size and severity of the injured site, and some may lead to epilepsy or affect future intelligence, which often requires long-term drug control.

Second, febrile convulsion: related to fever. The most common attack time is when the fever is the highest, but sometimes this kind of convulsion will appear when the temperature rises or falls rapidly. This is a very common disease in children aged 6 ~ 18 months. Rose rash and high fever caused by cold can cause this kind of convulsion. This has happened to 8% of all children. The seizure time is short, and most of them stop automatically within 15 minutes after the attack. Few episodes are more than two or three in a row. Sometimes it is familial, and my parents had similar symptoms when they were children. Of course, this kind of convulsion will not appear when there is no fever. The prognosis of the patient is quite good, and there are few permanent effects. Only when the child has a fever and convulsions, the possibility of encephalitis or meningitis should be considered, and special attention should be paid. If it is encephalitis or meningitis, patients often have neck stiffness. Doctors do a lumbar puncture examination, which is easy to diagnose and give corresponding treatment.

3. Epilepsy: If the child has repeated convulsions without fever or other obvious reasons, the first thing to consider is epilepsy. There are many types of epilepsy, the most important of which can be divided into grand mal, minor mal and psychomotor mal. The types and locations of seizures are different. The attack time can exceed 15 minutes if it is a big attack, and a few seconds if it is a small attack. The most typical patient has a history of recurrent attacks, and there are often similar other patients in his family. You can make a diagnosis by brain waves. After diagnosis, it is necessary to take antiepileptic drugs for a long time to prevent future seizures. Sometimes epilepsy will have convulsions when it has a fever, which is not easy to distinguish from febrile convulsions. At this time, you can wait 10 days to do brain wave examination. If it is febrile convulsion, most brain waves can return to normal after 10. If febrile convulsion only occurs once, there is no need for long-term medication prevention; If there are recurrent attacks, it is necessary to give medication for several months to several years according to the condition to prevent future attacks.

4. Brain tumor: If the tumor occurs in the brain, the most common phenomenon is local dysfunction, such as poor vision and hearing on one side, or poor limb movement, and sometimes local or systemic convulsions occur. But this kind of patients often have headache and vomiting at the same time, and it is getting worse and worse. At this point, they can't treat convulsions alone and need further examination.

There are many reasons for convulsions, such as toy lead poisoning, cerebral vascular malformation, hypertension caused by kidney disease, cerebrovascular embolism caused by heart disease and so on. The most important principle is that parents should not panic when children have convulsions. First, they should keep the patient's respiratory tract unobstructed. They can pry open the patient's teeth with a soft and solid object (such as wrapping a cloth on an iron spoon), remove all saliva from the mouth, and then send it to the hospital for treatment immediately. The biggest disadvantage of long-term convulsion is poor breathing caused by convulsion. After lack of oxygen, brain cells will be damaged or even die.
