Question
A 6-year-old boy has been suffering from the disease and medication has not had much effect. He still feels uncomfortable. Can pediatric epilepsy be relieved to some extent?
Answer
Congenital epilepsy is generally incurable and can only be controlled with medication. There are very few patients who have seen their condition improve after surgery, but the risks are high. It is recommended that the main treatment for epilepsy is pharmacotherapy, with oral antiepileptic drugs being effective in suppressing the condition to prevent seizures. There are many treatment methods for the disease, but since each patient’s condition is different, the medical treatment method chosen also varies. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek professional medical testing as soon as possible to receive appropriate treatment.
