Why does epilepsy attack

summary

Epilepsy patients are the same as normal people when they don't have seizures. My neighbor is like this. Once he was very worried, and then he lay on the ground and began to twitch. I was so scared that I didn't dare to get close to him. There are many reasons why epilepsy attacks. Let's take a look.

Why does epilepsy attack

One of the reasons is the transient brain dysfunction caused by recurrent abnormal discharge of brain neurons. The symptoms of early stage of epilepsy are generally sudden stop of movement, empty eyes lasting for five to ten seconds, and then sudden end. In severe cases, sudden loss of consciousness, apnea, limb twitch, clenching hands, eyes turning up or black eyes leaning to one side, cyanosis, mouth foaming, often accompanied by tongue bite and urinary incontinence.

The second reason is that epilepsy is actually an imbalance between the excitation and inhibition of the central nervous system. It is generally caused by heredity, brain diseases or brain trauma, and it is difficult to cure. It is recommended to take medicine for a long time instead of stopping it at will.

The third reason is that some patients with epilepsy usually have nothing to do. As long as they are anxious or emotional, they will have seizures. This is mainly a symptom reflected by the stimulation of the brain nerve, which can't be seen at ordinary times.

matters needing attention

The patients with epilepsy must control their emotions, and the people around them should always be vigilant, don't give them too much pressure, and usually abstain from alcohol, because alcohol can stimulate the brain, and then cause epilepsy. In addition, it is easy to get drunk and make trouble after drinking. Fighting may cause brain injury, and some may even cause death, so we must strictly abstain from alcohol, and do not drink alcohol It's a good thing.
