#挛 挛#Facial muscle spasm occurs in daily life, and the facial convulsions on the side are involuntarily convulsive. Facial muscle spasm is mostly in middle -aged and elderly people, and most of women. However, in recent years, the incidence of facial muscle spasm has become more and more young, and children will be sick. Of course, this probability is relatively small. A 12 -year -old child had been diagnosed, and he was very impressed by him.

It was a child in Shanghai. When my parents took him to see me, I said that the child has been diagnosed with facial muscle spasm for 4 years. In 4 years, they have seen almost all the hospitals that can be seen in Shanghai. There are no good ways to seek medical treatment in other places. The only way to cure is surgery. Parents can't bear their children's surgery, but they are worried that the children's psychology, social, and learning will be greatly affected. In the end, they still want to perform surgery, so they take the child to come here.

After understanding the child's condition and watching all their test results, I told them responsibly not to surgery, it is recommended to wait for the child to consider after adulthood. At that time, the parents of the child were still a little bit incomprehensible. After the detailed explanation of the reason, the parents put down the long -term heart and took the child home.

So why do children's facial muscle spasm is not recommended for surgery? The cause of 4 aspects:

First, first determine what the child's facial muscle spasm is. If there is no intracranial lesions in intracranial, or tumor, but only vascular compression of this situation, then there can be no surgery. If there is tumor, it must be surgery. The child's nuclear magnetic resonance did not find the tumor.

Second, facial muscle spasm surgery is not urgent. It does not affect the patient's life. It can be done early or late, and it will not cause very serious consequences to the patient. For children, especially for adult children, I suggest to consider adults;

Third, there is a certain risk of surgery. Although the facial muscle spasm surgery is currently very mature, there is still a certain risk of surgery. There are still a few patients with a few patients after clinical surgery.

Fourth, surgery still has a certain pain for children. Although surgery is minimally invasive, after all, it needs to be bullish, and the recovery after surgery takes some time.

In addition, through this case, I also want to remind parents and friends that when looking at a doctor for the child, I recommend choosing a regular hospital and an experienced expert. Essence
