Patient's question:
My relative's son suddenly had a seizure on the ground today, his eyes were white, and it really scared me because it looked like he was dying. I yelled for help desperately. Later, someone came and helped him sit on the ground, holding his hand tightly while telling him to calm down. Oh my, I still feel so sad when I think about it now. Later, my relative said this boy might have epilepsy and that there's no cure for it.Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy, also known as epilepsy, is a recurrent disease characterized by brief loss of consciousness, accompanied by limb convulsions and behavioral disturbances. Epilepsy attacks are short in duration, generally not exceeding 2-3 minutes. Once they recur, they can resolve on their own without the need for special measures. Other less common symptoms of epilepsy, such as simple headaches, abdominal pain, and dizziness, cannot be easily diagnosed as epilepsy. Once epilepsy is confirmed, patients must undergo long-term antiepileptic treatment, which can also cause unnecessary psychological burdens for patients and their families. Epilepsy is a serious condition, and patients are advised to seek timely and symptomatic treatment, with the hope that they can follow their doctors' recommendations for treatment.
