Can hereditary deafness be cured?

Patient's question:

Doctor, my child is now 7 years old. He has had epilepsy since birth, which is inherited from his grandparents. I want to take him for treatment to cure this disease, so that he doesn't feel inferior. I just wanted to ask you, can hereditary epilepsy be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! The chance of recovery from hereditary epilepsy is relatively small when it recurs. However, with the advancement of modern medicine, as long as you promptly visit a formal otolaryngology department for a thorough examination and actively adopt treatment measures, including minimally invasive surgery if necessary, the results are generally quite good. You can also consider using a hearing aid. It's important to pay attention to your ears daily and prevent water from entering your ears while bathing or washing your face to avoid further issues.
