When I was a child, I fell on my head, and when I grew up, I got epilepsy

If you fall on your head when you are a child, you may get it when you grow upepilepsyBecauseepilepsyis directly related to brain damage after a fall. When a person falls on the head, it can cause damage to the brain tissue, which can lead to seizures when the brain tissue is damaged, causing abnormal firing of neurons in the brain.

In addition to brain damage, epilepsy can also be associated with skull damage, central nervous system infections, genetic factors, and more.

1. Skull injury: If the patient falls to the head, if there is skull injury, especially depressed fracture, subdural hematoma, epidural hematoma, cerebral contusion, etc., it will cause intracranial brain tissue damage, resulting in abnormal discharge of intracranial brain waves, resulting in seizures;

2. Central nervous system infection: After the patient falls to the head, if there is a central nervous system infection, such as viral encephalitis, bacterial encephalitis, meningitis, etc., inflammatory stimulation can lead to abnormal discharge of brain neurons, resulting in seizures;

3. Genetic factors: If the patient has a history of epilepsy in the family after falling to the head, epilepsy may occur due to genetic factors. Acquired brain injuries, such as trauma, poisoning, cerebrovascular disease, etc., can also cause abnormal firing of neurons in the brain, which can lead to seizures.

4. Other factors: after the patient falls to the head, if there is jaundice, anemia, malnutrition, diabetes,uremiaand other diseases, which can also be caused by secondary systemic diseasesepilepsy

The patient presentsepilepsyAfter that, you should see a doctor in time, improve relevant examinations, such as head CT, MRI and other examinations to clarify the type of epilepsy, and choose drug treatment and surgical treatment according to the doctor's instructions according to the type of epilepsy.
