Patient's question:
Hello, I am 20 years old. When I was a child, I once had a high fever, and my family didn't notice it in time, which led to encephalitis. Later, I was sent to the hospital and recovered from encephalitis, but it caused epilepsy. Over the years, I have sought medical treatment everywhere and taken a lot of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, but it hasn't improved. Hello, can epilepsy caused by encephalitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
In your case, having secondary epilepsy, this condition is generally not alleviable. Currently, you need to take medication long-term to control the recurrence of epilepsy. You should avoid fatigue, colds, and exposure to cold. In addition to preventing the recurrence of emotional excitement, medication typically involves a dynamic brain after taking it for three to five years. If the results are normal, the dosage can be reduced.
