Patient's question:
Can mild epilepsy be completely cured? My friend's child was diagnosed with epilepsy shortly after birth, and they don't want this disease to affect the child's future life. They are unsure how to treat it and what the clinical treatment for epilepsy is.Doctor's answer:
Suggestion: Currently, there are mainly two types of methods for treating epilepsy. One is drug therapy, which is the preferred first-line treatment for epilepsy. The other is surgical therapy, primarily used for refractory and intractable epilepsy that is ineffective with drug treatment and has surgical indications. In addition, some secondary epilepsy may require surgical treatment as the first choice. Besides the above, there are also some auxiliary therapies such as implantation, acupuncture, medication implantation, and external treatment devices.
