What are the causes of seizures

summary

I have used drugs to treat epilepsy for two years. Now I have stopped taking drugs, and I have not had seizures. In the process of treating this disease, it is very important to prevent seizures. Let's take a look at the causes of seizures.

What are the causes of seizures

First of all: seizures suddenly, no obvious incentives. But there are also some plot inducing factors. This predisposing factor may appear periodically, such as seizures may be related to endocrine factors or menstrual cycle, and other predisposing factors are irregular. The inducement may be natural sensual stimulation in normal life, or sudden stimulation, or stimulation induced by the sick child playing computer or games.

Secondly, structural or metabolic abnormalities of the brain can produce epileptogenic foci or reduce the seizure threshold caused by acquired factors. The lesions can be localized or diffuse, static or progressive. This kind of epilepsy (epilepsy) is called symptomatic epilepsy (epilepsy). In symptomatic epilepsy (epilepsy), genetic factors are important factors leading to epilepsy, especially many infants are victims of hereditary epilepsy.

Finally: different age stages lead to different causes of epilepsy. Age and brain maturity affect not only the tendency of seizure, but also the type of seizure. The etiology and age distribution of epilepsy in children have guiding significance for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of epilepsy. We must pay enough attention to the brain development, genetics, metabolism, midwifery technology and other issues in perinatal period, neonatal period and infant period.

matters needing attention

If patients in peacetime should actively prevent, at work to pay attention to the combination of work and rest, do not overwork, often keep enough sleep is the most important. At the same time, we should master the self-help measures of the first-aid box of epilepsy, and control it in time once the onset of epilepsy.
