Patient's question:
I have a younger brother. When he was young, he suffered a head injury. After he recovered, he started experiencing episodes of falling and convulsing again, several times a day. This is also known as epilepsy. He took many medications, but they had no effect. The family is very worried, and as a result, he hasn't been able to go to school. I really want to help my brother.Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy is indeed a stubborn disease. Epilepsy is a chronic brain disorder caused by abnormal electrical impulses in neurons. The treatment of epilepsy should focus on the mechanism of epilepsy attacks. Only when the neurons are truly normal can epilepsy be completely prevented from recurring. Drugs can control epilepsy attacks by reducing brain excitability, but drug treatment generally requires long-term medication, and the side effects are also significant. It is recommended to adopt a treatment plan that repairs damaged neurons, which can completely repair damaged neurons and thoroughly prevent epilepsy from recurring. The condition of epilepsy is very serious, and it is recommended that patients seek treatment immediately, hoping that they can receive symptomatic treatment according to the doctor's advice.
