What are the symptoms during a seizure?

Hello! The symptoms of epileptic seizures include: body convulsions, shaking of hands, shaking of feet, shaking of the corners of the mouth, and foaming at the mouth in some people.

Symptoms vary from person to person. Your symptoms are a bit like epilepsy, you had better go to the neurology department of the hospital as soon as possible for examination, do an electroencephalogram to confirm the diagnosis, and after the diagnosis, the symptoms can be corrected**. Good luck soon**!

The symptoms of seizures are mainly divided into petit mal seizures and grand mal seizures. Petit mal seizures, also known as absence seizures, are characterized by transient and frequent disturbances of consciousness, typically characterized by transient loss of consciousness and complete loss of consciousness in most cases. The clinical manifestations of petit mal seizures are sudden interruption of speech and activity, staring at the eyes, occasionally turning up, sometimes pale without warning, holding objects in the hands of the land, sometimes breaking the rice bowl, after the seizures stop, continue the original activities, each seizure lasts 2-15 seconds, no more than one minute, several to ten seizures a day.

Grand mal seizures, also called generalized tonic-clonic seizures, are characterized by loss of consciousness and generalized convulsions. Clinical studies have found that grand mal seizures account for more than 50% of seizures. The clinical manifestations of grand mal seizures are divided into four periods:

1. Premonitory phase, 2. Tonic phase, 3. Clonic phase, 4. Recovery phase. If your hands are shaking, you may be tired or stressed.

My name is Yang Shun'an, and I had an isolated brain pacemaker in your hospital last year, I don't know if you still remember me? I am writing this letter to thank you, ** epilepsy that has plagued me for more than 30 years, so that I can face all people with my head held up and can spend every day with a smile.

I suffered a traumatic brain injury when I was a child, and I was left with epilepsy, which not only caused a lot of trouble to my marriage, but also caused me to face a mental breakdown, and I once wanted to commit suicide several times.

Did you know? On the wedding night, my wife saw me sick and almost scared her to death, and then she cried all night and scolded me all night, saying that I lied to her and ruined her life, and then my wife was afraid of gossip and did not divorce me, but since then she has never given me a good face, so we quarrel every day, and we have never enjoyed the happiness of marriage. Originally, I thought that my life was like this, and there was no happiness at all, until last year we found your hospital on the Internet and knew your method, and we had the attitude of giving it a try, but what I didn't expect was that for more than a year, except for one seizure on the day of surgery, I never had a seizure again.

Now my wife is no longer scared when she sees me, and we have our own children, and since we have recovered from our illness, we have never quarreled and are living the happy life we used to have. Now, according to your doctor's advice, I have slowly stopped taking the epilepsy medicine I was taking, which has also reduced a lot of expenses for me, so I would like to sincerely thank you, you are the blessing star of our epilepsy patients. And I hope you can ** more patients and save more people.

Simple ischemia: Patients often present with an isolated ischemic attack with no other specific symptoms. This condition is not often seen, usually only about 10% of the time.

Absence of concentration with atonic atonic effect: When the patient has a seizure, the patient is presented with a constant posture, but the muscle tissue tone can be reduced, most commonly the head droops, and rarely the muscle tone gradually disappears and the problem leads to a fall. Absence with fall seizures is generally seen in atypical absence of attention.

Absence with mild clonus: Minor twitching of the face or limbs is common during absence seizures.

Absence is often accompanied by ankylosis in patients: it often manifests as a social influence on the muscles, most commonly with an upward gaze of the eyeball. If the range of use can be expanded to fully dismantle the body, it will cause it to fall back.

Absent-mindedness with autonomic nerves: autonomic symptoms such as dilated pupils, pale or flushed complexion, rapid heartbeat, and, rarely, urinary incontinence, may be observed at onset.

Absence with automatism: This phenomenon is the most common in absence seizures, accounting for about 60%, and will increase with the increase of the absence, if it lasts for more than 10 seconds, almost all will have automatism.

In the seizure stage, many patients may have different symptoms, and some people may have tonic symptoms, mainly manifested as general stiffness. In addition to this, the following symptoms are more common, such as general cramps and convulsions, eye abnormalities, and gastrointestinal discomfort.

Epilepsy is a chronic brain condition that can occur in people of any age, and the disease is more common than other diseases, and it is also more difficult, so many people with this disease are deeply affected by the disease. In the seizure stage, most patients tend to have corresponding symptoms. So what are the symptoms of a seizure?

1. Tonic symptoms.

There are many people with epilepsy, and there are often obvious tonic symptoms during the seizure stage of the disease. It is mainly manifested by a sudden feeling of stiffness throughout the body, and may even fall. At the same time, the patient's limbs tend to shake irregularly, and a small number of people are prone to purple lips or complexion and tilted head.

If the condition is not controlled in time or the condition is more severe, it is easy to fall into a coma.

2. Spasms and convulsions all over the body.

Some people with more severe epilepsy often have obvious generalized spasms and convulsions when the disease is attacked. There are also patients who may suddenly lose consciousness, and at the same time, the four of them will have regular and constant convulsions. A small number of patients may have obvious apnea and bluish complexion, and sometimes they may not even be able to control their bowel and bowel behavior, resulting in incontinence.

In addition, there may be acts such as biting the tongue, which may endanger people's lives.

3. Abnormal symptoms of the eyes.

Seizures can also cause obvious eye abnormalities in the body, one of the more common of which is blurred vision. Patients often feel that they have color hallucinations or flashes of light in their eyes, but this usually does not last long.

4. Other abnormal symptoms.

People with epilepsy may also be affected by other parts of the body, such as the gastrointestinal tract and sensitive parts of the brain. Among them, the more common gastrointestinal symptoms are mainly abdominal pain and nausea, and the brain abnormalities are mainly manifested as mental abnormalities.

Although epilepsy is often a sudden onset, there are some abnormal manifestations before the seizure. Family members can use these manifestations to prepare for the seizure.

So what are the unusual manifestations before a seizure?

Experts at the Psychiatric Center of Shenyang 93303 Hospital said that the signs of seizures include prodromal symptoms and aura symptoms.

Prodromal symptoms refer to the symptoms of general malaise, irritability, irritability, depression, poor mood, and frequent pickiness or complaining about others in the days or hours before the major seizure.

Dizziness, headache, loss of stomach intake, paleness, flushing and indigestion may occur.

Aura: Delusions, hallucinations, automatisms, local myoclonus, or other special sensations that occur in the seconds leading up to a major seizure, and some partial seizures may also have a prodrome similar to that of a generalized seizure.

Symptom. It can manifest as various types of psychiatric disorders, such as affective, emotional, and cognitive sensory symptoms. "Aura" has a great locating value in determining the starting point of epilepsy. "First.

"Signs" must be distinguished from prodromal symptoms, which are symptoms that occur hours or days before the onset of the onset, whereas the "aura" is in fact the beginning of a clinical onset that the patient's conscious presence may recall and recall.

Description. There are many types of aura that can cause seizures:

1) Somatic sensation, common abnormal sensations such as numbness;

2) visuality, generally flashing, bright or hazy;

3) auditory, often tinnitus, etc.;

4) olfactory, including the smell of burnt rubber;

5) Gustatory sensation, with a special uncomfortable taste in the mouth;

6) Emotional, including anxiety, restlessness, depression, panic, etc.;

7) Spirituality, including delusions, hallucinations, etc.;

8) Others include dizziness, epigastric discomfort, etc.

It is important to be familiar with the various manifestations of aura, as some patients may be the only symptom of epilepsy over a long period of time. It is often overlooked and not taken seriously until a generalized seizure occurs. Equally.

After generalized seizures are controlled by antiepileptic drugs, the "aura" remains and becomes the only symptom.

If you still don't understand, you can consult the Spiritual ** Center of Shenyang 93303 Hospital.

Generalized seizures: Generalized seizures of epilepsy, also called grand mal seizures, have the following common clinical symptoms. Half of patients with generalized seizures have aura, such as dizziness, confusion, epigastric discomfort, and audiovisual and olfactory disturbances.

During the attack (spasmodic seizure period), some patients first make a sharp scream, and then have both loss of consciousness and fall, there is muscle rigidity of the whole body, breathing pause, the head and eyes can be deviated to one side, and after a few seconds, there are clonic convulsions, the convulsions gradually worsen, which lasts for dozens of seconds, and the breathing resumes during the clonic period, and the mouth foams.

Partial epilepsy: Partial epilepsy is a convulsive seizure of a muscle or limb in the body. It may last for a long time, usually without loss of consciousness, and after a severe attack, the muscles at the site of the twitch may be temporarily paralyzed.

Autonomic epilepsy: Autonomic seizures have varying degrees of impaired consciousness, drowsiness may occur after the seizure, and the seizures last for a few minutes to hours, or even 1-2 days, and the frequency of seizures is uncertain, and it can be abdominal pain or vomiting and headache symptoms.

Psychomotor epilepsy: Psychomotor epilepsy is the most common form of seizure, second only to grand mal seizures. The most common cause is birth trauma (63%), some of which can cause seizures after several years or 20-30 years of injury, and the lesions are mostly in the temporal lobe, so it is also called temporal-lobe epilepsy.

The symptoms of epilepsy are:

1. Grand mal seizures of epilepsy: dizziness and stomach discomfort. Sudden loss of consciousness, falling to the ground, head tilting, limb rigidity, rhythmic twitching of the muscles of the whole body, often biting the tongue, foaming at the mouth, and may be accompanied by incontinence, which generally lasts 1-3 minutes.

2. Petit mal seizures of epilepsy: Petit mal seizures of dementia epilepsy, also known as absence seizures, are typically manifested by the patient's transient loss of consciousness, most of the consciousness is completely lost, and occasionally the consciousness is shallow, and he knows something about his surroundings and can hear questions, but he cannot answer. Impairment of consciousness is characterized by transient and frequent occurrence.

Most seizures take 2 to 15 seconds and do not exceed 1 minute, several to dozens of times a day. Happens suddenly, terminates suddenly. Presents with a sudden interruption of speech and activity, staring, occasionally upturning, and sometimes pale without warning.

Holding objects in the hands of the land, sometimes breaking the rice bowl, after the seizure stops, the original activity continues.

3. Psychomotor seizures of epilepsy: On the background of consciousness disorders, there are often delusions, hallucinations and automatisms.

4. Localized seizures of epilepsy: also known as simple seizures, which are manifested as rhythmic tics of a certain part of the body, lasting for a few seconds, clear consciousness, and if there is epileptic discharge expansion, it can extend to half of the body or the whole body.

?I believe that many people are aware of the symptoms of early epilepsy, that is, the following conditions: the symptoms of early epilepsy will show symptoms such as irritability, irritability, depression, poor mood, and frequent pickiness or complaining about others.

Delusions, hallucinations, automatisms, focal myoclonus, or other peculiar sensations that occur within seconds before a major mal seizure. Some psychomotor episodes may also present with prodromal symptoms similar to those of a grand mal seizure. That's all for the early symptoms of epilepsy.

What are the obvious symptoms of seizures? Symptoms of epileptic seizures are often complex and variable from patient to patient, but are often similar from seizure to seizure to the same patient. Seizures originating in the frontal lobe are characterized by sudden onset and short duration, ranging from a few seconds to tens of seconds.

Consciousness usually returns to normal immediately after the seizure, with no apparent postictal haze. Frontal lobe seizures often occur in clusters, several or even dozens of times a day, often at night, especially when the patient falls asleep, and in severe cases, the patient has seizures when he falls asleep and has difficulty falling asleep for many days. Some motor seizures originate primarily in the primary motor cortex and are mostly clonic movements, and the symptoms of such seizures are often manifested as rapid, transient clonic movements of the eyelids, or several consecutive clonic tics of one limb.

Seizures of origin in other brain regions that involve the primary motor cortex can produce focal clonic movements. Seizures can occur in otherwise normal children, presenting primarily as nocturnal cascades, and are often diagnosed as night terrors or paroxysmal nocturnal dystonia when hypermotor automatism is the predominant manifestation. Benign familial frontal lobe epilepsy has recently been confirmed.

Cingulate seizures often present as focal seizures with complex somatomotor automatisms, autonomic symptoms, and affective symptoms. Episodes of frontal polar origin may present with obsessive thoughts or loss of contact, deflected movements of the head and eyes, falls, and autonomic symptoms. Because the cause of epilepsy is uncertain, the symptoms of early epilepsy can besquare everyone.

However, modern medicine is developed, and epilepsy is no longer a life-threatening disease.
