How do you get epilepsy?

Epilepsy is clinically referred to as epilepsy. Epilepsy is characterized by excessive neuronal discharge in the brain and malfunction of the central nervous system, manifested by patients experiencing recurrent seizures, usually of relatively short duration. There are many causes of epilepsy, such as genetics, tumors, infections, cerebrovascular disease and brain injury, which may cause epilepsy: 1. Genetics: chromosomal abnormalities can easily lead to lesions in the central nervous system, and these patients may have abnormal synchronous discharges of intracranial neurons, leading to seizures; 2. Tumors: brain tumors are common causes of epilepsy, especially slow-growing The tumors are common causes of epilepsy, especially slow-growing oligodendrogliomas, meningiomas, astrocytomas, and so on. They are usually found in middle-aged people and are an important cause of secondary epilepsy; 3. Infections: various kinds of encephalitis, meningitis, and brain abscesses can easily cause convulsions in the acute stage, and the scar and adhesions formed after healing may also become epileptic foci, affecting normal brain function and inducing epilepsy; 4. This can trigger epilepsy; 5, brain injury: in young people as well as adults with epilepsy, traumatic brain injury is an important cause, and seizures begin weeks, months and possibly years after brain injury; 6, birth injury: birth injury is also a major cause of epilepsy, and contusions, edema, bleeding and infarction in the brain during birth can also lead to local cerebral sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and the formation of foci and seizures several years later 7, poisoning: such as lead, mercury, carbon monoxide, alcohol and other poisoning may cause abnormal discharge of intracranial neurons and cause seizures. In addition, nutritional and metabolic diseases and allergic diseases may also induce epilepsy. Patients are advised to actively treat the original disease to avoid exacerbating the condition and missing the time for treatment, resulting in serious consequences.
