Patient's question:
My child is 5 years old this year. Since childhood, he has suffered from pediatric epilepsy. Currently, he has been taking medication to control it, but it still frequently recurs. I would like to consult about what to do when pediatric epilepsy recurs.What kind of help I want: How to treat and prevent it.
Doctor's answer:
For the treatment of epilepsy, it is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicines such as Tianma (Gastrodia elata), Hupu (Amber), Lingyangjiao (Antelope Horn), Sheixiang (Musk), Chaihu (Bupleurum), Guizhi (Cinnamon Twig), Shichangpu (Calamus), Qingyangcan (Codonopsis), Baijiangcan (Bombyx Moth Cocoon), Gouteng (Honeysuckle), Yangxuancao (Epilepsy Grass), Zhenzhumu (Mother-of-pearl), Tietaofen (Iron Gall Powder), Longjicao (Dragon's Tail Grass), and Gancao (Licorice). These traditional Chinese medicines possess functions such as invigorating the body's vital energy and dispelling pathogenic factors, calming the mind and soothing nerves, promoting blood circulation and resolving blood stasis, eliminating dampness and cooling blood, reviving the brain and restoring consciousness, strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi, and nourishing the essence and marrow. They can fundamentally regulate the functions of the viscera, making them the best treatment plan for completely self-healing epilepsy, a stubborn condition.
