Patient's question:
What conditions can trigger a seizure? The child has seizures suddenly, without any warning, and is now 5 years old. During a seizure, the limbs become stiff, and the child may foam at the mouth. What kind of help is needed: What conditions can trigger a seizure?Doctor's answer:
Sudden climate changes. Climate is a significant factor that triggers epilepsy, playing a crucial role in its onset. Sudden shifts in weather can cause patients' bodies to adapt poorly, which Traditional Chinese Medicine refers to as "external pathogen." When sudden cold or intense heat penetrates a patient's body, it can easily lead to a series of symptoms, triggering a recurrence. Common colds and fevers can weaken the immune system, cause liver fire to flare up, and result in brain hypoxia or insufficient blood supply to the brain, disrupting brain nerves and leading to epilepsy.
