Sometimes it happens as a result of brain failure and abnormalities; It means that the child is born with an unhealthy brain, the cause of which is often unknown.
He added: For example, the child’s brain has a hole or the diseases that cause meningitis, which is a brain infection. Epilepsy can be in utero or after birth. Of course, the treatment of different types of epilepsy is different and each epilepsy has its own treatment.
Referring to the causes of epilepsy in children, the specialist of children’s brain and neurological diseases pointed out: these factors can be congenital abnormalities of the brain; so that when the child is born, hypoxia can occur and the cause of epilepsy is the same; Or the child’s brain can get infected after birth. Encephaly is a viral disease that affects the brain, in some children this condition improves and some remain, sometimes in the form of cerebral palsy and sometimes in the form of mental retardation.
Ghofrani noted: It may be in the form of seizures, or it may have behavioral complications or a diagnostic disorder, each of which has a cause and each cause has its own treatment.
