Patient's question:
I have had epilepsy since I was a child and often experience symptoms such as twitching and drooling. When I don't have a recurrence, I am completely normal. I have always received valuable medication treatment, but it still cannot completely cure it, and it still recurs from time to time. What method should I use for treatment?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Currently, there are many treatments available for epilepsy. The key is to have a treatment that corresponds to your specific condition. Only by addressing your specific condition can epilepsy be effectively treated. If the treatment is not appropriate, not only will it not be effective, but it may also delay the condition. It is recommended that you consult for follow-up treatment. Generally, all antiepileptic drugs work by reducing the excitability of brain cells to prevent recurrence. Long-term use of these drugs can easily lead to brain cell edema, swelling, memory decline, personality changes, and slow reaction times. In addition to timely treatment for epilepsy, patients also need to pay attention to care aspects, such as proper diet and maintaining a positive mood.
