Patient's question:
What are the treatments for epilepsy? My relative's child was diagnosed with epilepsy this year because he has been having recurrent episodes of sudden full-body convulsions, eyes rolling up, and foaming at the mouth for the past year. These episodes usually last for about a minute and then subside. After going to the hospital for examination, it was found to be epilepsy, and the doctor recommended medication treatment. Hello, what are the treatment methods for this type of epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
According to what you described, epilepsy patients must persist in taking antiepileptic drugs. Irregular monthly blood tests and liver function tests are recommended. It is advised that the baby should rest and avoid excessive fatigue during the day. Early follow-up is key. It is important to go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible. Based on the patient's symptoms, explore the focus and implement additional treatment. Personal hygiene should also be paid attention to, and regular exercise should be maintained to keep a positive mindset. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
