Patient's question:
Today we were playing at our neighbor's house when a relative suddenly shouted and fell to the ground, twitching all over. Foam was coming out of his mouth. His family said it was a seizure. We quickly took him to the hospital. Here, I would like to consult experts on how to treat adult epilepsy.Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy is primarily a disease caused by abnormal discharges of brain neurons. The majority of epilepsy patients can have their symptoms completely controlled through oral antiepileptic drugs. Under normal circumstances, when exposed to certain stimuli or experiencing poor rest, they may repeatedly suffer from sudden loss of consciousness, facial drooping, and symptoms accompanied by increased muscle tone. In such cases, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly in the neurology department for follow-up and regular treatment.
