Patient's question:
No one in our family has epilepsy, but recently, I've been experiencing twitching. At first, I thought it was due to calcium deficiency. However, the symptoms occurred frequently, and one time, when I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, they diagnosed me with primary epilepsy. Is this condition treatable?Doctor's answer:
Primary epilepsy can still be self-healed, and medication is generally used for treatment. Commonly used drugs include phenytoin, carbamazepine, clonazepam, etc. You can also choose traditional Chinese medicine Tianxiadan for treatment. If the medication is not effective, surgery may still be necessary. I hope this explanation brings you comfort, and wish you a speedy recovery!Patients with primary epilepsy can use folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life while understanding professional care. It is essential to avoid extreme hunger or fullness in daily diet and never overeat or binge drink.
