Ten signs of mild epilepsy

There is no mild and severe classification in the clinical classification of epilepsy, which is divided into partial epilepsy and generalized epilepsy. The so-called mild epilepsy by the common people generally refers to the type of epilepsy that has relatively mild clinical manifestations and fast remission of symptoms. Its manifestations can be various, such as mouth twitching, facial flushing, chewing, disorientation and so on. Epilepsy is a clinical syndrome caused by highly synchronized abnormal discharges of neurons in the brain due to a variety of reasons, and the clinical manifestations are characterized by seizures, transient, repetitive and stereotyped. It may manifest as sensory, motor, consciousness, mental, behavioral, autonomic dysfunction or both. For example, simple partial seizures are characterized by twitching or numbness or pins and needles sensation of one eyelid, corner of the mouth, hand or toe; flushing of the face and the whole body, sweating, standing hair, dilated pupils, and the feeling of wanting to urinate, etc.; and various kinds of memory disorders, affective disorders, illusions, and complex hallucinations. For example, complex partial seizures are characterized by blurred consciousness, repeated pouting, chewing, licking the tongue, teeth or swallowing, repeated rubbing of the hands, constant dressing, undressing, wandering, running, aimless opening and closing of doors, riding in a car, talking to oneself, shouting, singing and so on. If the seizure of disorientation is manifested as a sudden interruption of an ongoing activity, followed by a brief upward rolling of the eyes and double gaze. When considering epilepsy, it is recommended to seek prompt medical attention to clarify the diagnosis and choose appropriate medication under the guidance of a physician to avoid progression of the condition.
