Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my cousin is 18 years old this year. Yesterday, when she was at school, she suddenly fell to the ground and had another episode of twitching, with foam coming out of her mouth. She was taken to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it was epilepsy. Hello, is it easy to treat adolescent epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
Your cousin suddenly fell to the ground and had another episode of twitching, with foam coming out of their mouth. In this case, it is indeed a grand mal seizure caused by abnormal brain waves. Epilepsy can be controlled with medication, so if a teenager has epilepsy, it is important to go to a local regular hospital for a thorough examination and control it with medication to prevent it from recurring. Patients with epilepsy should not eat spicy or irritating foods.
