Patient's question:
,,Full-body tics, spitting foam for a year, always treated with medication, but relapses are still very frequent. I really want to be cured.
Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy manifests differently during recurrence due to different types. In grand mal epilepsy, there is sudden loss of consciousness, falling to the ground, head extension, followed by a loud cry due to diaphragmatic spasms, convulsions of all limbs, foaming at the mouth, cyanosis, upward rolling of the eyes, and sometimes incontinence of urine and feces. After the recurrence, the person cannot recall the process and experiences pain and fatigue all over the body. Petit mal epilepsy, also known as absence seizure, is characterized by sudden cessation of speech and movement, staring eyes or tapping the table, and dropping objects in hand. After the seizure stops, the person resumes the original activity. Focal epilepsy is characterized by twitching of a local or one side of the limb. If the epileptic pulse spreads, it can extend to the whole body. These are the symptoms and manifestations of epilepsy.
