During a child's growth process, they may experience different discomforts or abnormal symptoms due to various reasons, such as convulsions. Although they are common, parents are very worried when they see their children having convulsions. Can a lack of vitamin B in children lead to seizures?
Due to the variety of B vitamins, the clinical symptoms of children lacking different types of vitamin B are also different. If a child lacks vitamin B6, it may cause symptoms such as vomiting and seizures.
If a child lacks vitamin B1, it may lead to loss of appetite or indigestion. Lack of B2 can cause angular inflammation, glossitis, scrotal inflammation, eyelid inflammation, photophobia, etc. If a child is deficient in vitamin B12, they may experience symptoms of megaloblastic anemia.
B6 deficiency can cause microcytic hypochromic anemia and increased serum iron levels, as well as hyperhomocysteinemia, which can lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as thrombosis, hypertension, arteriosclerosis, etc;
To assess the clinical manifestations of children with different types of vitamin B deficiency, prevention is more important than treatment. Children should consume foods rich in vitamin B, such as milk, beans, mushrooms, and whole grains, to prevent vitamin B deficiency.
