Seizures :
Seizures are a neurological medical problem. In this condition, the patient gets a few episodes of seizures due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Patients diagnosed with this condition experience symptoms like loss of consciousness, uncontrolled muscle movements, intense change in behaviour, staring blanky, and loss of bladder control with bowel and other related problems. It has a sudden onset and lasts for a few minutes. Additionally, this condition gets triggered by some severe brain issues like brain tumors, cerebral hypoxia, aneurysms, other conditions that increase these symptoms. It is diagnosed with some potential neuro exams like EEG, MRI, CT scans, blood tests, and other related tests, which help to evaluate the severity of the disease and help to provide selective treatment based on the symptoms and clinical evaluations. It is clinically evaluated by skilled specialists who focus on resolving neural issues, such as neurology doctors or neurosurgeons. Treatment for this condition mostly includes anti-epileptic medications, brain stimulation and other related treatments. Additionally, managing other medical issues with compliance to the medications and taking low ketogenic diet improves symptoms from getting worse.
