Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I see a neurologist. How does epilepsy get acquired?Doctor's answer:
Relatives suddenly spitting foam and having impaired consciousness brought to the hospital may highly suspect epilepsy. This situation requires timely and careful examination, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the head and electroencephalography (EEG) to help determine the type and severity of epilepsy. Subsequently, long-term use of antiepileptic drugs may be necessary to prevent recurrent symptoms. Some individuals may achieve a spontaneous remission effect through surgery.
