Posttraumatic Epilepsy
Posttraumatic epilepsy is a condition in which brain damage from hard
blows leads to seizures. The seizures may begin immediately and
recur at intervals or it could be a year before a seizure occurs. If
the blow to the head does not penetrate to the brain only a small
percentage of severe blows will cause seizures. If the blow to the head
penetrates to the brain a substantial number of the injuries will
develop seizures.
Under a doctor’s care there are drugs that can control the seizures.
A healthy lifestyle of proper nutrition, and exercise will not only
help to prevent and cure this disorder, it will be beneficial for
almost any health problem. For more information on a healthy
lifestyle, view my articles on “Keys to the Century Mark” and
