Patient's question:
A relative has epilepsy, but I have some questions that I don't understand. Is epilepsy a mental illness? Is it the kind of epilepsy we usually call ""? What are the differences? How can we distinguish between them?Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy (also known as "epilepsy") is considered a mental illness. This view is incorrect, as there are fundamental differences between the two. Although some epilepsy patients may develop mental illness, it is extremely rare. Only individuals with a predisposition to epilepsy may be at risk of developing mental illness. Epilepsy is also known as "flock epilepsy," and it is difficult to cure with conventional drugs. Western medicine has no specific treatment, while traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese herbal medicine have accumulated many unique treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. It is recommended that you adopt traditional Chinese herbal medicine. The daily treatment for epilepsy patients primarily involves symptomatic treatment. Patients can take various oral medications, supplemented by a combination of vitamins, while also maintaining a regular schedule and avoiding alcohol. We hope that epilepsy patients can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
