Question
How should a six-year-old child be treated if they experience sudden stiffness, muscle spasms, and foaming at the mouth during sleep in the afternoon and at night?
Answer
Epilepsy is a disorder of brain function characterized by sudden, abnormal discharge of neurons in the brain, which can lead to seizures. After receiving systematic medical treatment using scientific technology, approximately 97% of epilepsy patients can be cured. Treatment methods include oral medication and minimally invasive surgery, with a very low recurrence rate after surgery. Commonly used medications include carbamazepine tablets, phenytoin sodium tablets, and diazepam tablets.
