Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. What is epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
The so-called epilepsy is an abnormal impulse of brain neurons, which causes patients to experience another seizure. During acute recurrence, patients may lose consciousness, have clenched jaws, foam at the mouth, or experience incontinence of urine and feces, as well as convulsions of the limbs. Therefore, it is recommended that patients actively use antiepileptic drugs, such as carbamazepine or sodium valproate, to control the frequency of seizures.
