Patient's question:
My poor cousin, he has suffered from epilepsy since he was a child. He is so. Recently, his parents have been quite busy with training and have sent him to live with me to take care of him for a while. However, I don't understand epilepsy patients at all. I don't know when he might have a recurrence. Is there anything I should be aware of?Doctor's answer:
During a seizure, consciousness is unclear, loss of consciousness occurs, and there is no response when called. 2. During twitching, especially at the initial twitching site, it is necessary to determine whether it is one or both limbs. Facial twitching may occur. If facial twitching is present, it is important to carefully observe whether it is on the left or right side. 3. The frequency of recurrence, with many recurrences occurring approximately once a day. 4. The behavior after a recurrence, whether it is immediate clarity or a period of confusion. Fatigue, headache, and loss of appetite may occur. After a recurrence, there may be temporary weakness or complete immobility of the limbs. Epilepsy is a serious condition, and patients are advised to seek timely symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment.
