Patient's question:
I have a best friend who is 25 years old this year. He loves drinking beer very much and almost drinks beer every day. Later, he developed epilepsy. He thought it was caused by drinking beer, so he stopped drinking beer for a while. He is also quite fat. Later, it still recurred... What should he do?Doctor's answer:
Abstaining from alcohol will never lead to a recurrence of epilepsy. Additionally, epilepsy patients cannot consume beer. They should quit smoking and avoid alcohol, and prevent mental stress in daily life, which will help in the recovery of the disease. The best way to treat epilepsy is based on traditional Chinese medicine treatment, as it addresses the root cause, gradually adjusts, repairs brain nerve cells, and achieves the goal of complete treatment. Additionally, a small amount of Western medicine should be used in conjunction to control seizures. This approach treats both the symptoms and the root cause, not only yielding good results but also minimizing side effects.Epilepsy is a very serious condition. Patients are advised to seek timely and symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctors' advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, dietary issues should be paid attention to, and spicy foods should be avoided to prevent worsening the condition.
