Patient's question:
A child in my village relative is an epilepsy patient. During the New Year's celebration, his father came to report the good news with him. I offered him tea, but his parents said he couldn't drink tea because epilepsy patients are not suitable for drinking tea. I wanted to ask you how epilepsy patients can truly avoid drinking tea?Doctor's answer:
People with epilepsy should try to drink less stimulating beverages in their daily lives, such as those containing alcohol, or easily induce nervous excitement drinks like tea or coffee. Stimulating the nerves may lead to a recurrence of epilepsy. Epilepsy is a chronic condition, and there is currently no effective method to cure it. It is mainly controlled through long-term oral medication to prevent recurrences. Additionally, it is important to avoid cold exposure and not catch colds to prevent infections.
