Is abnormal brain discharge epilepsy?

Is abnormal brain discharge epilepsy? Speaking of abnormal brain discharges, many friends will think of epilepsy. This is mainly because epileptic seizures are caused by abnormal brain discharges. Therefore, many friends think that abnormal brain discharges are epilepsy. In fact, this idea is not correct. You must know that sometimes abnormal brain discharges do not cause epileptic seizures. Therefore, I also hope that all epilepsy patients can understand that when treating epilepsy, it is not enough to just prevent abnormal brain discharges from occurring.

Abnormal brain discharge is a chronic disease in which brain neurons suddenly discharge abnormally, leading to transient brain dysfunction. Epilepsy is a clinical phenomenon caused by abnormal and excessive hypersynchronous discharges of brain neurons. It is characterized by sudden and transient symptoms, and has a variety of manifestations due to the different locations of abnormally discharged neurons in the brain. May be motor, sensory, or autonomic with or without changes in consciousness or alertness.

An epileptic seizure is a clinical phenomenon caused by abnormal and excessive hypersynchronous discharges of brain neurons. It is characterized by sudden and transient symptoms. Due to the different locations of abnormal discharge of neurons in the brain, the manifestations are varied and can be motor, sensory, psychiatric or autonomic, with or without changes in consciousness and alertness. For those who are truly asymptomatic clinically and only show abnormal discharges on the electroencephalogram (EEG), it is not called an epileptic seizure. Because epilepsy is a disease of the brain, abnormal and excessive discharges of neurons in other parts of the body (such as trigeminal neurons or anterior horn neurons of the spinal cord) do not constitute epileptic seizures.

To sum up, I believe that all of you have already eliminated the relationship between abnormal brain discharges and epilepsy. In order to reduce the occurrence of abnormal brain discharges, I hope that all of you can do a good job of care in normal times. When the weather turns cold, pay attention to keeping your head warm. Also pay attention to reducing the time you use your brain. This will be of great help in preventing abnormal brain discharges.
