Patient's question:
At the age of 4, I accidentally ingested rat poison. It has started to recur. After treatment, it was suppressed. The frequency of recurrence has decreased from frequent to intermittent. Generally, it recurs every 2 or 3 years. At the age of 14, I was injured in a car accident. It recurred after about 40 days, and then it recurred 4 or 5 times. I am 21 years old now, and it hasn't recurred for two or three years. On the night of May 11th, it recurred again.Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy is caused by abnormal discharges of brain neurons, it is a disease that recurs repeatedly, and many triggers can lead to the recurrence of epilepsy, such as: drinking alcohol, emotional influence, head injury, overexertion, etc. For patients with epilepsy, it is essential to take medication on time and never stop abruptly, otherwise it may worsen the condition. Secondly, it is best to avoid the recurrence of triggers as much as possible, pay attention to rest, and quit smoking and drinking. Additionally, epilepsy patients should not go to reservoirs or high-risk places alone to avoid danger if a seizure occurs again.
