UNDERSTANDING EPILEPSY: CAUSES AND SYMPTOMS

What is epilepsy?

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent, unprovoked seizures. These seizures result from abnormal electrical activity in the brain leading to a temporary disruption in normal brain function. It affects people of all ages, and its severity can range from mild to life-altering.

CAUSES OF EPILEPSY

The exact cause of epilepsy often remains unknown, but several factors can contribute, including:

• Genetic Factors: Some types of epilepsy are inherited.

• Head Injury: Trauma to the head can trigger seizures. 

• Tumors, strokes, and infections can lead to epilepsy.

• Developmental Disorders: Conditions like autism can increase epilepsy risk.  Metabolic Abnormalities: Imbalances in the body's chemistry may play a role.

SYMPTOMS OF EPILEPSY

The symptoms vary depending on the type of seizures. Common symptoms include: 

• Uncontrollable jerking movements

•  Loss of consciousness

• Temporary confusion

•  Staring spells 

• Emotional change
