1, genetic factors
Children's epilepsy has certain genetic factors, and the types of children's epilepsy inherited by different families are also different. This is because a special gene in these families is abnormal. This abnormal gene will lead to problems in the metabolism of calcium, sodium, potassium and some chemicals in children, which will indirectly cause epilepsy in children.
2. Brain diseases
Encephalopathy is also one of the causes of epilepsy in children. If the child is in the mother's stomach, it will suffer from diseases such as gray matter heterotopia and brain malformation, which will lead to epilepsy.
If the child has primary tumor, metastatic tumor, meningitis, Toxoplasma gondii and other diseases in the brain, it will also cause epilepsy in the child. In addition, some cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral infarction and cerebral venous malformation can also cause epilepsy in children.
3. Systemic or systemic diseases
Some systemic or systemic diseases can also cause epilepsy in children, such as hypoglycemia, uremia, hypertensive encephalopathy and some metal poisoning, which can all cause epilepsy in children. In addition, some blood diseases can also cause epilepsy in children.
4. Dietary problems
Some dietary problems can also lead to epilepsy in children. If parents give their children food for a long time and eat some high-fat food and fried food, it is easy to cause epilepsy. If the child is frightened for a long time, drinks too much water and is hungry for a long time, it is also easy to cause epilepsy.
Epilepsy in children is a very harmful disease to children. When children suffer from epilepsy, they must be treated with drugs, and in severe cases, they must be operated directly. During the treatment, parents should take good care of their children in life and psychology, and go to the hospital for reexamination regularly.
