Patient's question:
The child's hands and feet are trembling, diagnosed with epilepsy. How should it be treated?Child, 16 years old, male. Originally, the hands were trembling, now the feet are trembling. Last Saturday, the child fell unconsciously but did not feel it. A 24-hour EEG was performed, and it was considered to be epilepsy. The child is now taking medication. Is there a cure for this?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, epilepsy is a clinical syndrome characterized by recurrent abnormal discharges of brain neurons, leading to dysfunction of brain function. Common symptoms of epilepsy include sudden loss of consciousness, falling down, convulsions of limbs, spitting out saliva or making strange noises in the mouth, and returning to normal upon waking. There are two diagnostic features of epilepsy: one is suddenness, meaning it occurs suddenly without any other signs. The other is that epilepsy attacks are not just once or twice, but rather repeated periodic attacks. Both of these conditions are essential. It is recommended that if you are truly unsure whether it is epilepsy, it is best to go to a formal and professional epilepsy treatment hospital for examination, diagnosis, treatment, and treatment in a timely manner to avoid delaying the condition.
