Patient's question:
My son was recently diagnosed with epilepsy. Can this type of pediatric epilepsy be cured, and generally does it take about two years?Doctor's answer:
To achieve complete self-healing generally requires twenty years or more. This is because it is an abnormal discharge of brain neurons caused by factors such as intergenerational inheritance and brain trauma, which can manifest in the body. According to the child, there may be symptoms of hereditary recurrence. Under the guidance of a doctor, timely and standardized treatment with antiepileptic drugs should be administered. Arrange the child's life reasonably, ensure adequate rest, avoid overeating, prevent sleep deprivation and emotional excitement; pay attention to safety to prevent trauma, and use medication appropriately. In fact, having epilepsy is not at all. Patients should believe that they can overcome the disease. As long as treatment is timely in the early stages, the chances of controlling the condition and recovering are very high.
