Excess electricity in the brain
Symptoms of excess electricity in the brain
The symptoms associated with epilepsy vary according to the type of seizures experienced by the patient. Some seizures may appear on the patient in the form of temporary confusion, involuntary involuntary movements, cramps in the arms or legs, or stare, loss of consciousness, or psychological symptoms. The patient has similar episodes at a time, and the most common symptoms associated with epileptic seizures include:
- Partial seizures: They are seizures that occur as a result of one place disorder in the brain and have two types:
- Simple partial seizure: This type of seizure does not cause loss of consciousness, but it can cause disturbances of the patient’s senses such as sight, hearing, smell, and taste. These seizures may be accompanied by involuntary involuntary movements at one end of the body, and sometimes the patient may experience spontaneous sensory symptoms, such as numbness and dizziness.
- Complex partial seizure: These seizures cause loss of consciousness. The patient may perform repetitive actions, and may remain in the vacuum and not respond to the outer environment.
- Generalized seizures: It is the seizures that arise from an imbalance in the electrical activity of the entire brain as we mentioned. It has several types:
- Absence seizures: The patient’s stare in the vacuum, and the movements of strange, such as eyelashes frequently, and the movement of lips, and a large eyelash, and may cause these attacks loss of consciousness for a while.
- Tonic seizures: These seizures cause muscle cramps, usually affecting the muscles of the back, arms, and legs, causing the patient to fall to the ground.
- Atonic seizures: The loss of control of the body’s muscles causes the loss of the patient, causing sudden fall.
- Clonic seizures: Accompanying the patient’s suffering from frequent reflux movements usually affect the muscles of the neck, face, and arms.
- Myoclonic seizures, which appear as sudden tremors in the arms or feet, continue for a short period of time.
- Tonic-clonic seizures: accompanied by many symptoms and signs, the patient may lose consciousness, and may suffer from muscle spasm, or from the movements of retrograde, and may be the patient some tongue under the influence of Nubia, and may lose control of his bladder.
Treat excess electricity in the brain
There are many methods of treatment of epilepsy, and the method of treatment is chosen depending on the degree of frequency and severity of attacks, and the age of the patient, and the state of health and history of disease, and response to the treatment used before, and must be alert to the need to ascertain the type of seizures suffered by the patient; According to the type of seizure, and it is worth mentioning that most cases of epilepsy controlled by drugs, and the most prominent methods of treatment of epilepsy:
- Antidiabetic drugs: (Anti-epileptic drugs), these drugs reduce the number of seizures that may be exposed to the patient, and may be cured in some cases, and there are old types of antiepileptic drugs such as, Phenobarbital, Phenytoin, , Carbamazepine, Primidone, Diazepam and Ethosuximide. New drugs include Felbamate, Pregabalin, and Tyabagine, Tiagabine, Lamotrigine, and others.
- Treatment of vaginal nerve stimulation: (Vagus nerve stimulation), by installing a small device on the chest that sends electrical signals to stimulate the nerve, and this may help to prevent seizures.
- Surgery: In some cases, they are used to remove or modify the disturbed focus of epileptic seizures.
- Food ketone: (Ketogenic diet) is a diet rich in low-carb fat, and many epilepsy patients respond to this type of food well.
