Childhood Seizures

Seizures are involuntary movements originating from an abnormal nerve discharge that causes altered awareness. When children have seizures, they show up a symptom of shaking, chewing, or lip-smacking, and the guardian of the children with seizures should keep them away from stairs and sharp objects. Electroencephalography is used to diagnose seizures, along with blood and urine samples.
