Reason
According to Dr. Vishwanathan Lyer, a neurosurgery at Zynova Shalby Hospital in Mumbai (India), depending on the severity, the symptoms may include uncontrolled tremor, loss of consciousness, quickly face, visual disorders and confusion. Epilepsy can develop at any age, but often in children.
The exact cause of epilepsy is still difficult to identify, but may be related to factors such as brain injury, genetics, infection or development disorders.
Living with epilepsy can cause stress and many people who are sick need support in daily activities such as driving, eating, bathing, wearing clothes.
This can lead to a feeling of frustration, anxiety, stress and even depression.
In some cases, strong seizures can cause serious injuries, even death if not treated promptly.
How to control and prevent seizures
In order to help patients with epilepsy can live normally, Dr. Vishwanathan Lyer, recommends that treatment and prevention play an important role.
Treatment options usually include drugs that help stabilize electrical activity in the brain and control epilepsy. In case of ineffective drugs, surgery may be a treatment for severe cases.
In addition, stimulating vagus or response nerves is also a treatment for drug users but ineffective.
Besides, changing a healthy lifestyle is also very important. This includes getting enough 7-8 hours of sleep every night, controlling stress, avoiding the factors that activate seizures, maintain a balanced and healthy diet.
With the right treatment and scientific lifestyle, people with epilepsy can still live a normal life.
