                     What Conditions Cause Seizures? - Top neurologist 
in Shalimar Bagh
Studies show that approximately 1 out of 100 Americans 
experience a seizure in their lifetime. 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, behaviour, 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
Dr. Shailesh Jain - Top neurologist in Shalimar Bagh has
