Patient's question:
My cousin has epilepsy and frequently experiences seizures. Sometimes the seizures last only a moment and then stop. The family doesn't know how to help him, and we all want to know how to treat epilepsy when it occurs.Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description of the situation: epilepsy is caused by the function of brain cells being determined by their location in the brain. Therefore, when abnormal discharges occur, the symptoms they cause can differ depending on the location of the brain cells. If a person suddenly falls to the ground, does not respond to calls, has upward rolling or tightly closed eyes, clenched jaw, and, this could be epilepsy. However, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination to confirm the specific diagnosis.
