Epilepsy in children is a condition where they experience seizures, which are sudden bursts of electrical activity in the brain. It's like a sudden storm disrupting normal brain functions.

 

These seizures can look different: some kids might stare blankly, shake uncontrollably, or even lose consciousness for a short time. It's not always clear why epilepsy happens; it could be due to genetics, a brain injury, or an illness.

 

Treatment usually involves medication to help control the seizures. With the right care and management, many kids with epilepsy lead normal, active lives. It's important to work closely with doctors to find the best treatment plan.
