Patient's question:
The son has brief episodes of absence seizures, occurring a few times a month. Currently, he is not taking medication or undergoing any other treatment. Can brief seizures (absence seizures) be self-cured without treatment?Doctor's answer:
The causes of epilepsy are varied, including focal brain lesions or diffuse brain abnormalities, systemic metabolic poisoning, and some cases with unknown origins. Epilepsy, also known as "" or "" in colloquial terms, is a chronic disease caused by sudden abnormal discharges of brain neurons, leading to temporary dysfunction of the brain. Depending on the patient's condition, targeted repair therapy can be used to repair damaged neurons, restore the function of brain neurons, balance abnormal discharges, and ultimately completely prevent epilepsy attacks. Oral medications can be used to control clinical symptoms.
