Patient's question:
What are the methods of TCM in treating epilepsy? Because when I have epilepsy, I always faint. My family no longer dares to let me do that. After an epilepsy attack, I always feel uncomfortable and I don't remember anything clearly. Sometimes my tongue gets bitten and bleeds. I feel very anxious. What should epilepsy patients pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
Pay attention to the following:1. Actively cooperate with irregular and variable medication.
2. Avoid eating fast food, large amounts of meat, dog meat, donkey meat, spicy food, and drinking alcohol.
3. Do not watch programs that are distressing, sad, or emotionally impactful; prolonged use of computers and smartphones is not appropriate.
4. Do not hold large firework displays to avoid excessive fright and the risk of disease recurrence.
5. Prevent colds. Maintain low fever, fatigue, hunger, overeating, and always stay cheerful to build confidence and overcome the disease.
