Question
What are the important considerations for pediatric epilepsy patients in daily life?
Answer
Pediatric epilepsy patients should pay special attention to their personal safety and avoid being in dangerous environments during seizures, such as near water or areas where electric shock is possible. To prevent the recurrence of epilepsy, patients should follow the following recommendations: maintain a regular lifestyle, rest on time, ensure adequate sleep, avoid staying up late and over-exertion. The diet should be light and fresh vegetables and fruits should be eaten more, and coffee, cola, spicy and other stimulating beverages and foods should be avoided. Smoking and alcohol should also be avoided. At the same time, medication should be taken regularly and regular follow-up appointments should be made.
