Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes A Sudden State Of Trance During Sports Activity?
My 10 year old daughter is having episodes where she is sort of going into some sort of trance for a few seconds and then snapping out of it. For example she was playing basketball and when the two teams rebounded and went toward the other end she stayed behind staring at the floor, but then snapped out of it. This happened twice during the game.
