Treatment of epileptic seizures

I believe everyone knows about epilepsy-like diseases, right? There must be people around us who suffer from this disease. Of course, before the onset of the disease, they look almost the same as normal people, so we may not know very much about this disease, and we are not sure what its specific symptoms are, what causes it, and even less sure how to treat it. So let’s take a look at it together.

Symptoms:

Epileptic seizures and epilepsy are a group of diseases and syndromes characterized by temporary central nervous system malfunction caused by abnormal nerve discharges that recur repeatedly during the course of the disease.

Epileptic seizures

Depending on the location of the neurons involved and the range of discharge spread, dysfunction may manifest as different disorders of movement, sensation, consciousness, behavior, autonomic nerves, or a combination of these. Each episode or each type of attack is called an epileptic seizure. Patients may have one or more painful epileptic seizures coexisting.

Specific performance:

The patient often starts with screaming, then suddenly loses consciousness, falls down, and has symmetrical tonic muscle twitches. The head and eyes turn to one side, the corner of the mouth is tilted, white foam comes out of the mouth, the tongue and lips are bitten, and there is incontinence. When the attack stops, the patient is like a normal person.

Causes of epileptic seizures

Epileptic seizures are temporary central nervous system malfunctions caused by recurrent, non-abnormal nerve discharges, and epilepsy is a group of diseases and syndromes.

How are epileptic seizures treated?

1. First of all, it is important to discover and stop it as soon as possible, and not wait until harm is caused before taking action.

2. Ask about the patient's medical history to understand the condition, and patiently ask whether the patient has ever had any aggressive behavior. Many aggressive behaviors have no obvious causes. We should strengthen observation of changes in the patient's condition and carefully understand the patient's psychological state. For patients with severe aggressive behavior, they can be sent to the hospital in a timely manner.

3. Establish a good relationship. Since patients lose their self-awareness during the illness and often do not understand the concern of people around them, it is necessary to pay attention to the art of language when communicating with patients, try to meet their reasonable demands, and establish a good relationship with them.

4. Strengthen management and try to create a comfortable environment for patients to engage in cultural and recreational activities.

The article not only introduces its symptoms, but also the causes of its occurrence. Not only that, it also tells us how to treat epileptic seizures. If there is someone around us suffering from this disease, we must advise them to seek treatment as soon as possible.
