How exactly should epilepsy, commonly known as: “lamb madness”, be treated? So is epilepsy so terrible, and how should we face epilepsy and treat it? On June 24, Jiangsu TV’s “Vanguard” program team invited Dr. Guo Hui, chief physician and professor of Shanghai Deji Hospital affiliated with Tongji University, to explain what epilepsy is, the triggering factors of epilepsy, what epilepsy patients should pay attention to on a daily basis, as well as the proliferation of fake drugs in the market and how to choose a regular hospital for treatment. Epilepsy is a brain disease caused by abnormal brain discharges, and there are more than nine million patients in China, making it a relatively common brain disease. The clinical experience of Professor Guo for more than 20 years tells us that 80% of patients can be completely cured through current technology and epilepsy is not that terrible. The treatment of epilepsy 1, drug therapy 70% of epilepsy patients can be completely controlled and cured by drug therapy, but must go to a regular professional hospital for consultation and prescription, because if you accidentally buy fake drugs, not only no effect, but also make the condition worse and cause recurrent seizures. The most important thing is that it is not possible to get the right treatment. In the last decade, epilepsy surgery has become very advanced, after the detection of electrodes to pinpoint the abnormal discharge of the lesion, can be completely cured by surgery, and the side effects of epilepsy surgery are very few, according to the current new technology, only 3 out of 2500 epilepsy surgeries have side effects, the probability is less than one in a thousand, basically there is no death, vegetation, hemiplegia and other situations. The ketogenic diet is used to control and treat epilepsy by changing the ratio of protein, fat and carbohydrates in the diet and increasing the concentration of ketone bodies in the human blood. So far, good results have been achieved. The most important thing is that it is not a good idea to use this method. The patient and his family need to pay attention to matters in daily life: 1, the patient in the home when the seizure, do not move the patient, let him lie on his side; 2, with chopsticks wrapped in cloth for the patient to bite horizontally, so as not to bite the tongue; 3, the patient can not engage in dangerous activities, such as driving, frying, so as to avoid the sudden onset of the disease, injury to themselves; 4, such as children with epilepsy at home, do not make up for it, easy to induce the disease; watching television, etc. every hour to Rest, preferably not more than 3 hours a day.
