First, there are two main types of symptoms of epilepsy, namely systemic attack and partial attack. The common forms of generalized seizures can be divided into 7 types, they are grand mal, tonic seizure, clonic seizure, absence seizure, atonic seizure, myoclonic seizure and infantile spasm. The common forms of partial seizures are partial motor seizures and complex partial seizures.

Second: major seizures, also known as generalized tonic clonic seizures, occur when the patient loses consciousness. Sometimes he will scream first, then his whole body becomes stiff, and then his limbs shake rhythmically. Sometimes they stop breathing and turn blue. May bite the tongue, incontinence. A major attack usually lasts 1-3 minutes. After regaining consciousness, the patient may have severe headache or fall asleep. Children often return to normal quickly.
