What are the symptoms of epilepsy

summary

I have a distant cousin who has been feeling a little nauseous recently. Then he began to feel numb in his feet and uncomfortable all over. He was so scared that his cousin urged him to go to the hospital. After seeing him, the doctor told his cousin in detail about the early symptoms of epilepsy. Now let me tell you what the early symptoms of epilepsy are.

What are the symptoms of epilepsy

First: complex partial seizures (psychomotor seizures): psychosensory, psychomotor and mixed seizures. Most of them have different degrees of consciousness disorder and obvious thinking, perception, emotion and psychomotor disorder. There may be automatic symptoms such as wandering at night and so on. Sometimes, under the control of hallucination and delusion, violence such as hurting others and self injuring can occur.

Second: absence seizures (seizures): sudden interruption of mental activity, loss of consciousness, can be accompanied by myoclonus or automatism. A few seconds to more than ten seconds. EEG showed spike slow wave or sharp slow wave syndrome 3 times per second. Autonomic nervous seizures (diencephalic): headache type, abdominal pain type, limb pain type, syncope type or cardiovascular attacks.

Third: primary epilepsy was found in patients without definite etiology, and secondary epilepsy was found in patients with intracranial tumor, trauma, infection, parasitic disease, cerebrovascular disease and systemic metabolic disease. Generalized tonic clonic seizures (seizures): sudden loss of consciousness, followed by tonic clonic spasm. It is often accompanied by screaming, cyanosis, urinary incontinence, tongue bite, white foam or blood foam at the mouth, and mydriasis.

matters needing attention

When the patient's body is abnormal, he should go to the hospital for physical examination in time and consult the doctor for relevant knowledge. Understand what the obvious characteristics of epilepsy, so that when patients with similar symptoms, can be timely prevention and early treatment, will not delay the best treatment time.
