Patient's question:
When the illness does not recur, my aunt is like a normal person. But when it recurs, it's quite frightening. What are the causes of the epilepsy attack?Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy is one of the common diseases, a chronic, recurrent, brief syndrome of brain dysfunction and endocrine disorders. It is characterized by abnormal discharges of brain neurons. The causes of epilepsy can be primary or secondary. Primary epilepsy is inherited over generations with no other obvious causes, often occurring in a specific age group, with characteristic clinical diagnosis and EEG manifestations, making the diagnosis relatively clear. Secondary epilepsy is caused by brain damage or organic inflammation, requiring additional treatment.
