Patient's question:
My family does not have a history of epilepsy being passed down through generations, and my son did not experience it again during his childhood. At the beginning of this year, just after school started, while playing tennis, the child suddenly fell to the ground and had a seizure. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was diagnosed as epilepsy. The family is very puzzled, wondering how he could have gotten this disease. So, I would like to ask what could trigger an epilepsy seizure?Doctor's answer:
First, epilepsy can be caused by many different factors. It mainly depends on whether it is due to excessive stress, emotional tension, a bad mood, or other various things that bring the patient unhappiness. These can all lead to epilepsy. Therefore, in such cases, it is recommended to always maintain the patient's emotional stability, while also encouraging them to adopt an optimistic attitude. When necessary, many anti-epileptic drugs can be used for treatment.
