Question
A 3-year-old boy has been experiencing epilepsy symptoms at home, including seizures and foaming at the mouth. The doctor mentioned that long-term seizures may affect intelligence, and the parents are worried. They would like to ask: Can pediatric epilepsy be cured?
Answer
Epileptic seizures can be dangerous, especially generalized tonic-clonic seizures, which may be accompanied by loss of consciousness, foaming at the mouth, and irregular breathing. There are many treatment methods for epilepsy, including common medication, as well as methods to suppress the activity of the cerebral cortex and increase the seizure threshold, which can directly inhibit the focus pulse, affect the spread of impulses, and restore normal brain function.
