How can my child be treated if he has epilepsy? Can it be cured?

I'm sure you'll see some children suffering from epilepsy in your daily life. In fact, this is also a very common phenomenon. Some are born with epilepsy, but some are formed after birth.

This is mainly related to the individual's physical health and lifestyle habits, so many people will have this question, that is, how to ** children with epilepsy? Is it possible**? The answer to this question can actually be controlled by surgery or medication.

In general, it is difficult to ** this situation. Let's explain it in detail below.

At present, epilepsy includes medications, surgery, neuromodulation, etc. At present, the main focus on epilepsy at home and abroad is drugs. About 70% of patients with epilepsy can be controlled after regular anti-epileptic drugs**, of which 50% and 60% of patients can be cured after 2 to 5 years**, and patients can work and live like normal people.

Therefore, rational and formal antiepileptic drugs** are key.

If a child has epilepsy, it can be controlled with medication, and if you find epilepsy, you can do it.

This depends on the individual's physique and the doctor's best plan.

Extended information: Human beings can be defined at biological, spiritual, and cultural levels, or a combination of these definitions. Biologically, humans are classified as hominoids, chromosome 2 and orangutan nail chromosome centromere fusion (equilibrium translocation) association mode proximity of more than 16n, and multiple interarm inversions, the rest of the chromosomes have strong homology, is a higher animal.

On a spiritual level, man is described as being able to use the concept of a variety of souls that are believed to be associated with divine forces or beings in religion. In cultural anthropology, human beings are defined as beings capable of using language, with complex social organizations and technological developments.

Excision surgery can effectively increase the incidence of epilepsy in children

With the increased safety of neurosurgical interventions and the growing awareness of the long-term use of many antiepileptic drugs, there has been a change in the purpose of surgeries performed in the early stages, and more and more neurosurgeons are actively evaluating children after seizures with epilepsy. Current criteria for epilepsy surgery are based on the degree of impairment in activities of daily living, with the help of neurophysiology, anatomical lateralization, and localization to provide a detailed picture of the case, such as in children with specific epilepsy syndromes such as Sturge-Weber syndrome (muscle rigidity, spasticity, etc. as the main symptoms), even in cases that are not refractory to epilepsy, and to perform surgery as soon as possible before the patient is cognitively and neurologically deteriorating.

A variety of "black technologies" work together to overcome refractory epilepsy1. More sensitive: Since the magnetic field and the attenuation of bones and scalp are weaker than the electric field, they are more sensitive when detecting discharge.

2. Wider area: When the epileptiform cortical discharge is detected synchronously, the minimum cortical area of the spike MEG is 3-4 cm2, while the scalp is 6-20 cm2.

3. Higher resolution: Compared with electroencephalography, MEG detects higher spatial resolution of epileptiform spikes.

In addition, MRI and other forms of structural imaging techniques have also been applied to patients with medically refractory epilepsy, and cortical lesions have been identified by functional MRI in 20% of patients with medically refractory epilepsy. Another important structural imaging technique is diffusion tensor imaging (a special form of MRI MRI) or fiber tract imaging, which can be used prior to temporal lobectomy to minimize the risk of visual field defects.

Functional localization (mainly magnetic resonance spectroscopy) as a method to distinguish regional metabolic rates has also been shown to lateralize the epileptigenic zone in patients with focal cortical dysplasia, especially in the case of identifying the functional cortex of the brain, major motor regions, and determining the response to specific paradigms (such as aggravation of regional cerebral blood flow, etc.), and the emergence of a variety of monitoring techniques has made the preoperative preparation for surgery more detailed. The next step is to find an experienced surgeon to perform precise resection surgery while controlling the functional impairment, and the incidence of childhood epilepsy is very high, James T., director of the Cancer Research Center at the Children's Hospital of the University of TorontoProfessor Rutka is one such powerful professor who focuses on the study of difficult brain diseases.

July 6, James TDuring his visit to China, Professor Rutka will also conduct face-to-face consultations for five children with neurosurgical diseases such as pediatric epilepsy, glioma (especially high-grade gliomas such as DIPG, pediatric brainstem glioma, and glioblastoma), and pediatric cerebral palsy. Parents can seize this opportunity if needed.

Childhood epilepsy, also known as Rolando epilepsy, is the most common benign partial epilepsy in childhood, with a significant genetic predisposition.

This cluster of symptoms manifests as transient, isolated episodes of partial facial hemimotor movements, such as transient tonic or clonic tics of the unilateral facial muscles, oropharyngeal muscles, and lips.

In the case of childhood epilepsy, most patients are mainly treated with drugs, and epilepsy is caused by abnormal electrical discharges in the brain.

Generally speaking, before epilepsy**, a neurologist can confirm whether a person actually has this disorder through a medical history, seizure symptoms, and if necessary, an electroencephalogram. Because childhood epilepsy requires prolonged medication**, a diagnosis is necessary. After the doctor determines the seizure pattern of the patient according to the condition of the child's epilepsy, the epilepsy** plan will be determined, and the patient will start taking medication.

Because the drug needs to be used for a long time, the ** of childhood epilepsy is usually anti-epileptic effect is large, small, and cheap, and it is more ideal, and the use should refer to the doctor's opinion, not blindly follow the trend, and what is suitable for others may not be suitable for themselves, this parents must pay attention.

Whether epilepsy can be cured is related to the following factors in addition to drug factors.

The first is the diseased**. If the epilepsy is caused by acute head trauma (car accident, fall, brain**, etc.), the epilepsy can also get better after the trauma**, but if the epilepsy is caused by brain tumor or cerebrovascular lesions, there are often still seizures after the tumor is removed. If it is caused by congenital brain development abnormality, the consequences of epilepsy are not good.

In addition, different types of epilepsy have different consequences, and in the case of absence petit mal seizures, the number of seizures gradually decreases with age, and by adolescence, about half of children have completely stopped having seizures. Epilepsy, another type of infantile spasms, has very bad consequences, most of which turn into other types of seizures, and often combined with mental retardation.

Seizures that are too frequent or long are not likely to have consequences.

In addition, the age of onset is also an important factor influencing the outcome. The younger the age, the worse the consequences. The onset begins in the neonatal period, often causing death, and even if it survives, it often has various neurological sequelae.

Epilepsy is caused by abnormal electrical discharges caused by damage to neuronal cells in the brain, so if you want to have epilepsy, you need to repair damaged neuronal cells, and epilepsy needs to be done early, so as not to delay the condition.

Make adjustments with a correct and reasonable diet. Insufficient diet is a lack of nutrients, affecting the biochemistry of qi and blood, which leads to physical weakness, on the contrary, excessive diet can damage the spleen and stomach, leading to a decline in physical fitness over time. Therefore, it is necessary to arrange the diet reasonably, balance the nutrition, and correct their bad habits.

Hello, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital to see, Epilepsy occurs in early childhood, and it is very likely that it is caused by genetic factors. The most effective starting point for epilepsy is the cause of epilepsy.

The method of childhood epilepsy is different from that of adults, because they are still in an important stage of growth and development, and the various organs of the body have not yet matured, so when carrying out epilepsy, it must be based on the premise of not harming the child's health, and determine the method and dosage of epilepsy drugs according to the actual condition of the child.

Epilepsy should start from the mechanism of seizures, common epilepsy methods include drugs, surgery, etc. Medications can control seizures by reducing brain excitability, but medications** generally require long-term medication and are also larger***. And not all people with epilepsy are candidates for surgery**.

Seizures are caused by abnormal firing of neurons, and seizures can only be avoided if the damaged neuronal cells are repaired.

The specific method depends on the condition, and 80% of epilepsy can be controlled

Childhood epilepsy is easier than adult epilepsy**, go to a regular epilepsy specialist hospital to see.

Pediatric epilepsy, like most forms of epilepsy, can be treated in some children.

Because pediatric epilepsy is often caused by intracranial infection, that is, febrile seizures. In childhood, when the brain is not fully developed, there is a greater chance of abnormal discharge. Febrile convulsions are induced by body temperature exceeding, and it is also a common pediatric disease, in the case of EEG monitoring, if there are frequent epileptic waves, it is also necessary to carry out standardized drugs**, early control, and no recurrence of seizures within 3-5 years, you can consider gradually reducing and stopping the drug.

Some pediatric epilepsy cannot be cured, because through genetic examination, such as genetic testing, partly through MRI examination, the child has congenital cortical dysplasia, or has birth trauma, there are some intracranial lesions, and there are clear epileptogenic foci, if you do not take medicine, you will have frequent seizures. Therefore, if there is a clear **, it is necessary to target the ****, and at the same time observe the EEG of the drug**, and reduce or stop the drug under the guidance of the doctor.

Epilepsy is a very tricky disease and it can be difficult**, especially for patients with mild illness in general.

Epilepsy is all about being controlled with medication, and I advise patients not to get their hopes up.

1.Generalized tonic-clonic seizures (grand mal seizures): sudden loss of consciousness, followed by tonic followed by clonic spasms.

It is often accompanied by screaming, bluish complexion, urinary incontinence, tongue bites, foaming or blood foaming at the mouth, and dilated pupils. After lasting tens of seconds or minutes, the seizures naturally stop and you enter a lethargic state. After waking up, he has a short period of dizziness, irritability, and fatigue, and cannot recall the seizure.

If seizures persist, people who remain in a coma are called grand mal status and are often life-threatening.

2.Absence seizures (petit mals): sudden interruption of mental activity, loss of consciousness, possibly myoclonus, or automatism. A few seconds to more than 10 seconds at a time. EEG showed 3 seconds of spikes or sharp slow wave synthesis.

3.Simple partial seizures: tonic seizures, clonic seizures, or paresthesia seizures in one part or one limb that are brief in duration and clear in consciousness.

If the seizure extends along the motor zone to other limbs or throughout the body, it may be accompanied by loss of consciousness, called a Jackson seizure. Temporary paralysis of the affected limb after an attack is called Todd's palsy.

4.Complex partial seizures (psychomotor seizures): psychosensory, psychomotor, and mixed seizures.

There are many different degrees of impairment of consciousness and significant thinking, perceptual, emotional, and psychomotor disorders. There may be automatism such as fugue and nocturnal wandering. Sometimes, under the control of hallucinations and delusions, violent behaviors such as hurting others and self-harm can occur.

5.Autonomic seizures (diencephaly): may be headache, abdominal pain, limbalgi, syncope, or cardiovascular.

6.Those with no clear ** are primary epilepsy, and those secondary to intracranial tumors, trauma, infections, parasitic diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, systemic metabolic diseases, etc.

Typical epilepsy condition. According to the health program I watched on **TV a few years ago, doctors and patients were on the screen to talk about the ** problem of an epilepsy patient, and finally it was improved with auxiliary **, that is, food diet. The patient's medication conflicts with the potential field of folic acid, which means that eating foods rich in folic acid will not absorb folic acid, and what epilepsy patients lack is folic acid.

It takes about 32 days for folic acid to be fully renewed after it is ingested into the body. Folic acid also conflicts with vitamin C from different sources, which component is eaten too much, and the other component is expelled from the body and not absorbed.

I said in "Sharp Pointing and Ordinary Direction": "Judging from the examples that have been proven by scientific medicine: epilepsy patients cannot absorb folic acid when they take medicine, and the drug occupies the position of folic acid; High levels of vitamin C can also cause a severe lack of folic acid in the body, and people who are deficient in folic acid will have more emotional problems. The fact that the electrons of the free radical state and the misplaced substance occupy the position where the electrons should be claimed is abnormal and will also lead to the failure of normal electron retrieval .

The best hospital is in your own home, the best food is pine pollen, and at the same time supplement the two major deficiencies of epilepsy: vitamin C and folic acid, ** these two elements in the same item will not conflict, you can refer to my "**Epilepsy", "Health Self-examination Three", "Sharp and Sharp Astaxanthin", "The Essence of Astaxanthin", "Sharp and Ordinary Finger Pu Pine Pollen", "The Essential Difference Between Antioxidants and Antibiotics".
