Patient's question:
My child has had epilepsy for 4 years now. It was left behind after a high fever during childhood. During an attack, the limbs twitch, foam comes out of the mouth, and consciousness is lost. It usually takes more than 10 minutes to regain consciousness. When they have a cold, the frequency of seizures increases significantly—usually not more than 10 times, but now the frequency has increased, which is truly heart-wrenching!What kind of help do you want: Can pediatric epilepsy be cured?
Doctor's answer:
Childhood epilepsy can be cured. When treating childhood epilepsy, it is necessary to consider both the efficacy of the medication and its side effects, as well as how well the child can tolerate them. The treatment of epilepsy is a chronic process, and family members should have confidence in the treatment. Epilepsy is not an incurable disease. With active treatment, appropriate medication, and a scientifically sound treatment plan, the effects of self-recovery can be anticipated. It is hoped that epilepsy patients will actively face their condition and overcome the distress caused by epilepsy recurrence and premonitory symptoms. For epilepsy, the most reliable preventive measure is to take antiepileptic medication on time and in the prescribed dosage.
