Patient's question:
Doctor. My son is only 15 years old, and he has already started having recurrent epilepsy. Everyone in the village laughs at my son. I have taken him to see many doctors, but it has never been cured. Can epilepsy be completely cured?Doctor's answer:
Your son suffers from epilepsy, which is relatively common in clinical diagnosis. The cause of epilepsy is abnormal electrical impulses in the brain. During an episode, it may manifest as foaming at the mouth, muscle twitching, and brief loss of consciousness. You can have an electroencephalogram (EEG) test performed at the hospital. Currently, epilepsy cannot be completely cured on its own, and long-term treatment with antiepileptic drugs under the guidance of a doctor is necessary for symptomatic relief. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery.
