Is epilepsy serious? Can intractable epilepsy be cured? 5

The main harms of epilepsy are:

One of the harms of intractable epilepsy: sequelae of epilepsy. It causes neurological sequelae such as mental retardation, paralysis, and more severe seizures in 9% to 20%.

Intractable epilepsy harms two: trauma. Epilepsy patients may fall due to sudden loss of consciousness during seizures, and touch surrounding hard objects and sharp objects and cause various injuries to the body.

Patients with intractable seizures are more likely to be agitated during the seizure, and may have aggressive behaviors such as self-injury, wounding, and destroying objects.

The third harm of intractable epilepsy: epileptic mental disorder. Once an epilepsy patient is diagnosed, it will definitely bring him a lot of psychological pressure, and many people will have psychological problems to a greater or lesser extent, and often have despair.

The medication period of intractable epilepsy is often very long, and some patients may have to take medication for life, and it is inevitable that all kinds of unpleasant things will happen in daily life, especially those related to diseases, which often increase the psychological burden of patients and eventually lead to epileptic mental disorders.

The fourth harm of intractable epilepsy: mental decline. The incidence of mental retardation in patients with epilepsy is higher than that of normal people, especially intractable epilepsy.

The main cause is brain damage and brain dysfunction caused by the primary disease, which naturally causes inattention, poor orientation, and inevitably affects thinking, understanding, judgment, analysis, calculation, memory, etc.

The fifth danger of intractable epilepsy: life-threatening. The main ones are status epilepticus, accidents, suicide, and unexplained sudden death.

Generalized-onset status epilepticus is often accompanied by varying degrees of consciousness and motor dysfunction, and in severe cases, cerebral edema and increased intracranial pressure. The case fatality rate is still high.

Epilepsy has become the fifth-largest disease in the world** and is expected to jump to the second-largest** and become a fatal disease by 2020. According to the China Health Association, there are currently more than 26 million epilepsy patients in China, and some patients die due to asphyxia during seizures, aspiration pneumonia, fractures, dislocations and other status factors. The most important thing for epilepsy patients to learn to protect themselves is to persevere, do not give up halfway, should persevere, do not rush, the process of epilepsy is very long, experts remind:

After taking yao, the condition is temporarily stable, do not stop yao and change yao suddenly, this will have a great adverse effect.

With the advancement of the ** stage, the body's five organs and six organs are becoming more and more balanced, and the sudden interruption of yao is bound to break this balance, causing epilepsy or persistence. Individual patients who are discontinued during or after YAO should be given the dose of previous seizure control immediately, and if necessary, the doctor will consider prolonging the time of YAO, so the gains outweigh the losses.

Epilepsy** is different from other diseases**, you must not go to the doctor indiscriminately, you must go to a regular professional hospital, listen to the guidance of specialists, accurate detection, scientific**.

Pediatric epilepsy, commonly known as "epilepsy" or "epilepsy", is a chronic disease in which neurons in the brain suddenly and abnormally discharge, resulting in transient brain dysfunction.

Children's epilepsy can be cured, but it is more difficult to get up, and it takes a long time, which is why many people feel helpless, but even if epilepsy is a difficult disease, epilepsy patients can not give up easily, because the process is a fairly long process, it is more necessary for epilepsy patients to persevere.

Epilepsy in children**:

1. When epilepsy patients suffer from epilepsy, they should not be anxious, but should choose the right hospital, which is the step of epilepsy, and it is also very important, so patients should be cautious when choosing a hospital.

2. Then the epilepsy patient should have a comprehensive examination, to understand the severity of his condition so far, and at the same time, the epilepsy patient should also have a comprehensive understanding, so that after understanding their own condition, they can choose the best method according to their own condition, so that they can help the patient choose a more suitable method for their own condition, and then they will start to carry out the first method.

3. Epilepsy patients should follow the doctor's instructions to carry out the process accurately, and at the same time, they should strengthen the care of the patient's condition, which is also a part of the disease, and let the patient correct some bad habits to avoid the existence of these bad habits, which will make the epilepsy patient's condition reversed, and at the same time, the patient should maintain a good attitude.

Epilepsy patients should do a good job of epilepsy and care in time to prevent the occurrence of epilepsy.

1. Be reasonable as soon as possible**.

Because the diagnosis of epilepsy is difficult in the early stage, the western medicine of epilepsy is not consistent, and many patients cannot only occur once under normal conditions, and the risk is very large within half a year, and it will gradually decline in the future. And the best treatment is in the early stage, if you wait for two years to be treated, it will be difficult, so once you find that you have this disease, you must go to the hospital in time to check and treat.

Second, the combination of doctors and patients is an effective guarantee.

The treatment of epilepsy must be based on the patient's understanding of his or her own condition, as well as a clear understanding of the care of epilepsy, and the patient's family should also know how to deal with some emergency situations, and the treatment of epilepsy is very related to whether the patient's medication is reasonable, and secondly, it also requires close cooperation from the family.

If the patient can use the drug reasonably, then the occurrence of epilepsy can be completely controlled by half, and the occurrence of epilepsy can be reduced by 35%, during which there is very little effect, so it is very important to choose the correct and reasonable drug, if the drug is not selected properly or the drug is changed frequently, etc., it will definitely lead to a decrease in the efficacy of the drug. Therefore, before the patient takes the drug, it is necessary to understand the guidelines and varieties of medication. What are the guidelines for epilepsy treatment?

Let's find out.

1. Steady treatment. Should patients with the first occurrence be given antiepileptic drugs after careful examination and diagnosis by a specialist? There is no complete consensus on this issue.

Studies have shown that people who present with a febrile convulsion have a 50% chance of having it again. Therefore, there is no rush to treat patients with first-time epilepsy with antiepileptic drugs, and in general, they will be treated after 1 to 2 episodes in the future, depending on the condition.

2. Take medication regularly. Controlling the occurrence and elimination of the optic nerve and the function of the optic nerve are normal, which is the intention of treating epilepsy. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out all inductive treatment for patients, mainly drug treatment, ** treatment, psychological treatment and surgical treatment.

In this regard, medical treatment is the most important. According to the different types of occurrence and EEG characteristics, the drugs selected and the dosage are also different. Regular blood levels should be checked according to the condition of the disease, and the dose should be adjusted in time.

3. The question of the criteria for the treatment of epilepsy is mainly manifested in the steady selection of doctors. Most patients seek medical attention after the onset of epilepsy, and epilepsy is a chronic brain disease that occurs, so it is important to choose a physician with a neurology specialty who can distinguish between diseases that occur similarly to epilepsy but are not epilepsy.

Epilepsy, you must have patients with this disease, it is a common disease, but for thousands of years, we did not think of it as a disease, but as a punishment of the gods.

Epilepsy is a brain dysfunction syndrome characterized by recurrent seizures caused by abnormal electrical discharges of brain neurons. Typical symptoms: the patient suddenly loses consciousness, followed by tonic and then clonic spasms, often accompanied by screaming, bluish complexion, tongue bites, foaming or blood foaming at the mouth, and dilated pupils, which last for tens of seconds or minutes and then the spasms stop naturally and enter a comatose state.

Epilepsy patients can be controlled by regular anti-epileptic drugs**, about 70% of patients can be controlled, of which 50% and 60% of patients can be cured after 2 to 5 years**, and patients can work and live like normal people. The above is a suggestion on whether epilepsy can be cured, I hope it will help you, I wish you good health!
