Question

What are the strategies for dealing with epilepsy?

Answer

Epilepsy patients may experience precursor conscious symptoms before a recurrence, such as abnormal sensations, chest tightness, discomfort in the upper abdomen, fear, drooling, difficulty hearing, and blurred vision. Therefore, the patient should quickly return to a safe place before the onset of an epilepsy seizure, and seek preventive measures to avoid accidental injuries. Patients’ family members should also learn to carefully observe the patient’s pre-recurrence performance so as to take preventive measures as early as possible and prevent other accidental injuries from occurring again.
