Patient's question:
Doctor, I would like to consult about the cause of epilepsy. I have epilepsy, and it has been about two years. I have been controlling the seizures with medication. Recently, the seizures have been frequent, and I often foam at the mouth and lose consciousness. So, I would like to ask the doctor, what should I do in this situation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, epilepsy generally relates to reasons such as patients having suffered from brain trauma, cerebrovascular diseases, or encephalitis in the past. If epilepsy recurs frequently, it is recommended to visit a hospital for medication adjustment. If medication control is not effective, some patients may consider surgical treatment. Approximately 50% of drug-resistant epilepsy patients can achieve recurrence control or treatment through surgery.
