                     BEST DOCTOR FOR FITS IN 
PITAMPURA – TRIGGER FACTORS 
FOR FITS AND HOW TO AVOID THEM.
Fits are something that has baffled humans for a 
long time. In the olden times, if someone 
experienced fits they were deemed insane and 
locked up. Even in modern times, fits continue to be 
a huge problem in the human population. Though 
anti-epilepsy drugs exist and work quite effectively, 
there are still many humongous factors in your daily 
environment that can trigger seizures and fits.
As was in the previous blog of headaches, today we 
will talk about in brief what are fits, what are there 
trigger factors, and how can they be avoided or 
treated in day to day life.
What are Fits?
Fits or a seizure is a neurological condition that takes 
over the human brain and produces odd electrical 
waves. Normal human brainwaves are enormously 
different than those produced while experiencing a 
fit, and there is very little research that can answer 
as to why such waves occur.
Fits can occur often to anyone, though many times 
people with a personal history of seizures and a 
family history of epilepsy are most prone to fits. 
People with head injuries are also quite susceptible 
to fits and it is recommended that you see a 
neurologist if you experience a seizure after a brain 
injury.
Trigger Factors of Fits
Though there might be several reasons that can cause a fit, 
it is advised to immediately see a neurologist if you 
experience one as more than 30% of people who have a fit 
will suffer one again.
    Hormonal Changes- Hormones can bring a 
positive effect to our body but sudden changes 
can also bring about several unwanted effects. 
Fits can occur in a body undergoing hormonal 
change and the person experiencing them 
should consult a doctor to be on the safe side.
    Infections- Infections can cause dirty, toxic 
substances to be accumulated in your body. 
These substances many times cause many 
diseases and fits are one of them. Though a 
person will stop experiencing seizures once the 
infection is cleaned out.
  Sleep- Proper sleep is an essential need of the human 
body and lack of 8 hours of sleep is the root cause of 
many problems. Many people who suffer from fits have 
been known to have a detrimental sleep pattern and it is 
advised to have a fixed, nutritional period of sleep.
  Alcohol and Drugs- Mind-altering substances interfere 
with the electronic brain patterns that can trigger 
epilepsy. Too many drugs and alcohol addiction can lead 
to frequent fits and eventually epilepsy.
  Flashy Lights- Flashy lights or strobe lights are known 
to cause seizures as photosensitive epilepsy is one of 
the most common forms of epilepsy. Flicker lights can 
cause a seizure in up to 3 people out of a hundred so it 
is advised to avoid them if you have a history of fits.
How to Treat Fits at Home?
Fits are a unique neurological disorder however they 
can be avoided with simple practices that have been 
proven to reduce the risk and frequency of seizures.
  Sleep Properly- Have ample amounts of sleep daily 
and catch up in the day time if you did not sleep well 
during the night. A good night’s sleep is essential in 
avoiding seizures and other diseases. 
  Eat Your Vitamins- Vitamin E and Vitamin B6 can 
help a lot with seizures and fits. Vitamin B6 is helpful 
for people who have seizures due to improper 
metabolization of the same and Vitamin E is a catalyst 
for antioxidants. 
  Meditation- Yoga, and meditation are needed to 
reset a mind after a long day of stress and tension. 
Meditation helps with seizures as it is a soothing 
activity for your brain.
  Herbal Therapy- Many herbal therapies are 
available for epilepsy and seizures but you need to 
consult a doctor before indulging in them as some 
might interfere with your prescription drugs. Though 
herbal therapy is a good, separate option for those 
that can’t get any response from conventional drugs.
  Take Care of Yourself- Your body needs proper 
maintenance. If you regularly experience headaches, 
fatigue, and lethargy, you consult a doctor and make 
a lifestyle change. Seizures can occur if the human 
body is not maintained with proper nutrition and 
recovery.
