Essentials for diagnosis 
(1) The disease is common in infants below the age of 3, and gets uncommon gradually above the age of 5.

(2) The disease mainly manifestes in clinic clonic convulsion of limbs, rigidity of neck, opisthotonus and unconsciousness.

(3) The patient has marked primary diseases such as common cold, fever, infantile pneumonia, measles, scarlet fever, encephalitis B and chronic diarrhea.

(4) Acute infantile convulsion manifests high fever, and is characterized by the four symptoms of fright, wind, phlegm and heat; chronic infantile convulsion displays slow onset and inevitable symptoms of asthenia and cold syndrome.

In TCM, a disease or a symptom might be caused by one pathogenic factor, even two or three pathogenic factors. When diagnosing a disease or a symptom, TCM doctors must follow the principle of "Syndrome Dfferentiation", and then "Suit the Remedy to the Case". In order to gain a more definite and valuable diagnosis, it's important and necessary for the doctor to learn the detailed health information of the patient, including his/her disease duration, age, sex, height, weight, family history, urine, stool, diet, sleep, sweat, energy, mood (emotion), as well as the tongue conditions and the palm conditions, etc. If you would want our expert to create a TCM diagnosis, you're welcome to contact us.
