Patient's question:
My uncle used to be very healthy, but recently he has been complaining that his head always hurts. When his head hurts, his eyes also hurt. He has a bit of high blood pressure, so he went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and had a brain CT and an electroencephalogram done. The results showed that he had a brain tumor. He was treated in the hospital, but after returning home for a few days, it recurred. Hello, what could be the cause of this disease?Doctor's answer:
There are many different reasons that can cause epilepsy. One is inherited from ancestors, and the other is caused by brain injury. However, no matter what causes epilepsy, timely treatment is necessary. The recurrence of epilepsy is primarily caused by the combination of three factors: hereditary factors, intracranial epileptic pathological changes, and triggering factors. Common causes include congenital diseases, prenatal and perinatal diseases, epilepsy attacks after high fever convulsions, cranial trauma, and other diseases.
