Question
What are the more effective methods for treating pediatric epilepsy?
Answer
The treatment of epilepsy is currently based on medication, with most patients achieving relatively ideal results. For some cases that are suitable for surgical treatment, such as brain tumors, cerebrovascular diseases, and other organic inflammatory conditions, surgery is also an option. However, medication treatment must continue post-surgery, and there are certain risks associated with surgery. It is recommended to adopt traditional Chinese medicine decoctions that tonify the heart and kidneys, purge phlegm and subdue wind, transform and stabilize epilepsy, activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, calm the liver and drain fire to treat the body condition, nourish the internal organs, reinforce the foundation, and achieve self-healing. Traditional Chinese medicine has fewer side effects, treats both symptoms and root causes, and is less likely to recur after recovery.
