Patient's question:
My child doesn't know how he got epilepsy, and now he is still in school. Epilepsy has had a significant impact on him, and he occasionally experiences symptoms like twitching in his hands and feet. I want to understand what to do if a student gets epilepsy and what kind of help is needed: What should be done if a student gets epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
Due to the differences in the initial location and transmission methods of abnormal pulses, the clinical manifestations of epilepsy are complex and diverse, which can manifest as recurrent activities, sensory, autonomic, cognitive, and psychiatric disorders. The causes leading to epilepsy are varied and unpredictable. With standardized antiepileptic drug treatment, about 70% of epilepsy patients can achieve recurrence control. Among them, 50% to 60% of patients can be completely cured after 2 to 5 years of treatment, allowing them to train and live like normal people.
