Patient's question:
Mother is 46 years old this year. Before this, she has been quite healthy and hasn't felt any abnormalities. But after taking her to the hospital for a thorough examination, it was discovered that she suffers from epilepsy. Moreover, the doctor said it has already reached an advanced stage. So, I would like to ask a few questions: what are the early symptoms of epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy may have a recurrence of seizures, foaming at the mouth, and twitching symptoms. It should be suspected to be related to psychological factors, emotional shock, or abnormal brain pulses. Avoid getting angry and always maintain a calm mood. Avoid spicy foods, maintain sufficient deep sleep, and avoid drinking beer or smoking. Also, avoid consuming tea or coffee. It is recommended to visit a hospital for an electroencephalogram (EEG) and a thorough brain CT scan for diagnosis and treatment. Symptomatic treatment with antiepileptic drugs may be applicable.
