What are the symptoms of epilepsy

summary

Recently, when listening to the chat between the elderly at home, I always heard the older generation talking about who had epilepsy. Out of curiosity, I asked a few more questions, and I also learned about it on the Internet. Today, let me talk about the symptoms of epilepsy.

What are the symptoms of epilepsy

First: epileptic seizures: sudden loss of consciousness, fall to the ground, head backward, roar due to diaphragm spasm, limbs twitch, mouth foaming, face blue, eyes turned up, sometimes accompanied by incontinence, after the attack can not recall the attack process, systemic pain and fatigue. Seizures, also known as absence seizures, are characterized by sudden cessation of speech and activity, staring or staring eyes, landing with objects in hand, and continuing the original activity after the seizure stops.

Second: localized seizures of epilepsy are characterized by local or unilateral limb convulsions. If the epileptic discharge extends to the whole body, psychomotor seizures (also known as complex partial seizures) can be characterized by sudden seizures, blurred consciousness, irregular and uncoordinated movements (such as sucking, chewing, searching, shouting, running, struggling, etc.). The patient's behavior is aimless, aimless, blind and impulsive. The attack lasts for several hours, sometimes as long as several days. The patient has no memory of the attack.

Third: simple partial seizures. Simple partial seizure refers to a part of the body or one side of the limb tonic, clonic seizure, seizure time is also very short, and seizure time consciousness is awake, if there are such early symptoms of epilepsy, must be timely to the hospital for authoritative treatment. The main symptoms of complex partial seizures are different degrees of consciousness disorders and obvious thinking, perception, emotion and psychomotor disorders.
