Patient's question:
I have been very tired and exhausted recently. At night, I often suffer from neurasthenia and cold sweats. My constitution is very weak. I just gave birth to a child and haven't been doing well during the postpartum period. Because I was previously diagnosed with epilepsy, what are the better emergency measures to take if a seizure occurs during the postpartum period?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in the case of a seizure recurrence, it is important to be careful not to collide with other objects, which could cause head injuries. Additionally, it is necessary to prevent tongue biting. A tongue depressor can be used to hold the tongue in place and prevent it from being bitten by the teeth. Generally, if a recurrence occurs once and then quickly subsides, it is advisable to focus on using antiepileptic medication to prevent frequent recurrences that could lead to brain damage. Wishing you good health.
