Patient's question:
My son is 15 years old. There is a history of epilepsy in our family, but we haven't noticed this condition in him until last year. However, he has had two episodes since then—mild convulsions and some shortness of breath. I'm not sure if it's epilepsy.Doctor's answer:
If it is juvenile epilepsy, how to have a seizure focus, how to have an inducing factor, and it is necessary to know what the triggers are. Because most epilepsy patients have a certain degree of consciousness impairment when they have a recurrence, the patients themselves cannot describe the recurrence process, and because doctors rarely witness the recurrence process of patients, detailed medical history is mainly based on the statements of the patient's family members or witnesses. Close cooperation with doctors is required for a correct diagnosis so that effective treatment can be obtained in a timely manner to prevent the condition from worsening.
