Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent, unprovoked seizures. It is caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Seizures occur when a surge of electrical brain activity causes altered consciousness, behavior changes, emotional changes and physical symptoms. Epilepsy can affect people of all ages and is one of the most common neurological disorders. A seizure can be generalized (affecting the entire brain) or partial (affecting only one area of the brain). The type of seizure depends on where in the brain the abnormal electrical activity begins. Seizures can range from brief lapses of attention to convulsions and loss of consciousness. Seizures can be classified into two categories: primary generalised onset seizures (PGOS), which begin in both sides of the brain, and partial onset seizures (POS), which start in one area or part of the brain. Epileptic seizures can cause different types of physical symptoms including twitching, stiffening, shaking, and loss of consciousness. Treatment for epilepsy includes medications such as anticonvulsants, which help to reduce the frequency and intensity of seizures. Surgery may be recommended for certain types of epilepsy and can involve removing a small piece of the brain affected by seizures. Alternative therapies, such as dietary changes, acupuncture, and other lifestyle modifications may also be beneficial for some people with epilepsy. Living with epilepsy can be a challenge, but it can be managed with proper diagnosis, treatment, and support. With the right care, people with epilepsy can lead full and productive lives.
