Overview

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, which are sudden and uncontrollable bursts of electrical activity in the brain. These seizures can vary widely in severity, duration, and type, and may manifest as convulsions, temporary confusion, or loss of consciousness. While the exact cause of epilepsy is often unknown, it can be triggered by factors such as brain injury, genetics, infections, or developmental disorders. Treatment for epilepsy typically involves medications to control seizures, lifestyle modifications, and in some cases, surgical interventions to remove or isolate affected brain tissue.
