Environment - Non Weather Related; Procedure
Our aircraft experienced sudden; violent turbulence due to possible wake turbulence from another aircraft. Flight Attendants B;C; and D were tossed around in the aft galley for about 10 seconds. Shortly after the plane was back in control; a call light rang; and a passenger in the OWWE (over wing window exit row) notified our 'D' Flight Attendant that his heart rate was racing. The D flight Attendant asked for medical personnel on the aircraft; and a passenger came to assist. After the passenger was helped; the ill passenger changed seats and the medical passenger sat in the OWWE; however; she was not briefed before landing.
Air carrier Flight Attendant reported a passenger became concerned after a wake turbulence encounter on descent into LAX.
