Whether you’ve experienced one seizure or multiple seizures, you should schedule an appointment with us at Arihant Neurospine Clinic in Pitampura and Shalimar bagh.

Signs of a seizure
When you have a seizure, you can experience a shift in your movements, behavior, feelings, and even consciousness. Seizures range in severity depending on how and where they start in your brain. They can last anywhere from 30 seconds to several minutes.

Symptoms of the onset of a seizure include:

Feeling confused
Staring outward with a blank look
Uncontrolled jerking movements in your body
Lack of awareness
Unconsciousness
You want to reach out to Dr. Shailesh Jain – Top neurologist in Shalimar Bagh and our team for an assessment if you experience any of these signs. We can help determine how your seizure began in your brain and where your abnormal brain activity started.

Conditions that can cause a seizure
When the nerve cells in your brain lose the ability to send and receive electrical impulses, the disrupted communication pathways can cause you to have a seizure.

Causes include:

Infection from COVID-19
Head trauma that causes injury to the brain
Stroke
Alzheimer’s disease
Sleeplessness
Recreational or illegal drug use
Brain tumor
Alcohol abuse
Certain medications that lower your seizure threshold
When you come in to see us, we evaluate you with a series of tests, and we learn about your family medical history. Our goal is to stop your seizures from ever happening again with effective therapies.

What can happen if seizures go ignored
If you don’t get your seizures under control, you can run the risk of other issues that could be life-threatening. For example, a seizure can cause you to fall, which can injure you. You could drown if you experience a seizure while swimming or even taking a bath. You’re also at risk of having a car accident.

We encourage you to schedule an appointment with us as soon as possible if you experience any type of seizure. Your condition could be more serious if you’re:

Pregnant
Diabetic
Have a high fever
Experience heat exhaustion
Have a second seizure right after your first one
