Question
What are the early symptoms of infantile spasms? Do they manifest as twitching?
Answer
The early symptoms of infantile spasms may include bending or nodding twitching, or may present with asymmetric severe pain. The typical recurrence features of this disease are bending or nodding twitching, while atypical forms may include head jumping to one side or twitching of one side of the body, extending severe pain, head being pulled back, eyes being rolled up, extending legs, and presenting in an opisthotonos position. It is recommended that patients seek a check-up at a reputable tertiary hospital to clarify the cause and receive treatment. Wish you good health.
