Patient's question:
My child was injured in a fall before turning 14 and now suffers from epilepsy, which sometimes recurs. They are still in school, and I'm worried about a sudden seizure at school.Doctor's answer:
The harm of epilepsy is actually many, for example. When epilepsy recurs, it can cause local or systemic damage. Sometimes it can cause muscle damage in the teeth, tongue, and cheeks. If epilepsy has been present for a long time, it can lead to damage to brain function. But the main issue should be to actively implement treatment. Treatment for epilepsy can include oral traditional Chinese medicine. There is a traditional Chinese medicine preparation called Chaihu Longgu Muli, which can be taken orally for the condition, but the course of treatment needs to be longer. You can find a professional TCM practitioner to prescribe such a medicine.
