Checked in the hospital, it was epilepsy

Patient's question:

Hello! My family is from Henan. I have a daughter in my family who is six years old. When she was one year old, she accidentally fell while riding a skateboard and hit her head. The hospital examination revealed epilepsy. She has a seizure once a year. Seeing other children go to school, I really can't describe the feelings in my heart. I want to know if the hospital can hope to cure my daughter's illness and let her live a happy and cheerful life, go to school.

Doctor's answer:

Due to the differences in the initial site and transmission methods of abnormal discharge, the clinical manifestations of epilepsy are complex and diverse, which can manifest as episodic motor, sensory, autonomic, cognitive, and psychiatric disorders. The causes of epilepsy are varied. With standardized antiepileptic drug treatment, approximately 70% of epilepsy patients can have their seizures controlled. Among them, 50% to 60% of patients can be cured after 2 to 5 years of treatment, allowing them to work and live like normal people.
