What are the early symptoms of epilepsy in Chongqing? Epilepsy is not just about "sickness", these hidden symptoms also need to be vigilant!

　　Common symptoms of epilepsy are convulsions, unconsciousness and foaming at the mouth. However, in addition to these, epilepsy has some uncommon symptoms, which are also epilepsy seizures.

　　1. Be stunned or stunned

　　The daze of epilepsy patients is different from that of ordinary people. Most people are nausea-daily, which is a sign of brain rest. When the patient is suddenly interrupted while doing something, this situation may last for a few seconds to a few minutes. Afterwards, the patient usually has no memory of what happened during the daze.

　　2. An involuntary smirk

　　This is a special type of epilepsy. Patients will laugh uncontrollably when they occur. The laughter may burst out suddenly, loud and harsh, and lack emotion. This condition may last for a few seconds to minutes, during which the patient may be accompanied by symptoms such as disordered consciousness, dilated pupils and limb convulsions. This situation is more common in children and is often mistaken for normal behavior by parents, thus missing the opportunity for treatment.

　　3. Muscle clonus seizure

　　This symptom is more common in adolescents, which manifests as sudden limb shaking. The patient is aware of it and shakes quickly, which can sometimes cause the items in his hands to fall. This type of attack often occurs when waking up early in the morning, and the patient may suddenly throw items out while brushing his teeth or doing homework.

　　4. Other hidden symptoms

　　In addition to the above symptoms, epilepsy may also manifest as sudden feeling of familiarity towards strangers, places or situations, or feeling unfamiliar with familiar people and environments. In addition, there may be stereotypes such as repeated swallowing and blinking, and some people may even experience hallucinations or strange sensations.

　　Why are children prone to epilepsy?

　　- Abnormalities during pregnancy or delivery of the mother, such as intrauterine hypoxia, brain damage, etc., may lead to epilepsy in children. Congenital abnormalities in the fetus or metabolic problems can also cause epilepsy.

　　- Intracranial infections (such as encephalitis), metabolic disorders, and cerebrovascular diseases in adults can all lead to epilepsy seizures.

　　- The long-term use of electronic devices, such as computers, TVs, game consoles, mobile phones, etc., is related to some cases of childhood epilepsy. Rapid fluorescence stimulation of these devices may cause abnormal neuronal excitement and is a cause of epilepsy in patients with brain dysplasia or brain disease.

　　What are the common causes of epilepsy?

　　Epilepsy is divided into primary epilepsy and secondary epilepsy. Primary epilepsy is closely related to genetic factors, while secondary epilepsy is usually caused by intracranial organic lesions or metabolic disorders.

　　Among the elderly patients, the main causes of secondary epilepsy include intracranial tumors, cerebrovascular diseases, brain degeneration diseases, infections (such as bacterial meningitis, brain abscess, viral encephalitis), metabolic encephalopathy (such as hypoglycemia, diabetic coma, uremia), as well as brain trauma, poisoning, and ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy.

　　What are the early symptoms of epilepsy in Chongqing? The main factors for primary epilepsy are inherited. Many patients with primary epilepsy have a family history, usually manifested as autosomal dominant or recessive inheritance.
