Patient's question:
My son is 10 years old. Four years ago, he was diagnosed with epilepsy at the hospital and has been taking medication to control it. Without medication, he experiences involuntary small twitches. I would like to consult about where would be the best place to treat this condition and whether it can be completely cured.Doctor's answer:
How should epilepsy be treated?Epilepsy is a syndrome of a brain system disease, caused by abnormal discharges within the brain's internal system. The seizures have a significant impact on the brain and can easily lead to severe damage to various parts of the nervous system.
Epilepsy is characterized by sudden onset, meaning it can occur abruptly during any activity, leaving the patient unconscious and causing severe physical harm. It is crucial for the patient to find a place to sit down and wait until the episode subsides before resuming any activity.
Everyone must have a detailed understanding of their physical condition in their daily lives. When a seizure occurs, it is essential to remain calm and composed, and seek immediate medical treatment by taking the child to the hospital. The most important thing is to use effective methods for treatment.
