Question
A patient with epilepsy asks that they frequently experience headaches, accompanied by symptoms of foaming at the mouth and weakness in the limbs. They want to know if this type of headache falls under neurological headaches.
Answer
The patient’s question may involve the condition of epilepsy complicated with neurological headaches. This type of headache is caused by brain dysfunction, leading to abnormal discharge of brain neurons, which manifests as symptoms such as foaming at the mouth, weakness in the limbs, and headaches. Recommended measures include the use of antiepileptic drugs and painkillers for treatment, such as carbamazepine tablets and Zhengtian capsules, which can help patients gradually recover and prevent the deterioration of the condition.
