Seizures and epilepsy
The Epilepsy is a brain disorder causing repeated episodes of patients with cancer. He spoke Nuba when sending groups of nerve cells (or neurons) in the brain the wrong signals, and this situation leads to a sense of strange feelings and emotions, or that the person is acting strangely ordinary. The patient's muscle cramps violent or lose consciousness has become infected.
There are many possible epilepsy, including illness, brain injury and brain development Allatabiei reasons. In many cases the cause is unknown.

Doctors EEG and other tests used to diagnose epilepsy. It is important that the epilepsy treatment starts immediately after his diagnosis, but there is no cure for epilepsy, but can be controlled to some drugs seizures for most patients. When drugs do not work correctly surgeries may help to implant devices in the brain to stimulate the vagus nerve and alert to do his job properly. Can as your diet can help some children with epilepsy.
an introduction
Millions of people in the world suffer from epilepsy, or have already incidence of convulsions or epileptic convulsions.
During seizures or convulsions occur when a person's movements and feelings can not control. He may cry or lose consciousness or beats gestures involuntarily.
The injured person is diagnosed with epilepsy when he has seizures or convulsions occur more than once because of a disorder in the brain. Sometimes people use the term seizures or convulsions to denote epilepsy.

Epilepsy of the most mysterious diseases. This tutorial provides information about the symptoms of epilepsy, its causes and ways to treat it. It explains what to do when the convulsions or seizures occur, and how to get along with the person's seizures or convulsions, and how you can prevent seizures or convulsions.
What are the Nuba
The brain is the control center of the body. In brain sections: the right hemisphere and the left half. The right half of the brain controls the left half of the body, and the left hemisphere of the brain controls the right half of the body.
He graduated guidance on how the movement and work of the brain through the nerves to the muscles and other parts of the body.

He graduated guidance on how the movement and work of the brain through the nerves to the muscles and other parts of the body.
There are certain areas of the brain that controls certain parts of the body. Some areas controlled vision, some of the other functions such as memory, movement and sensation. There are areas called "silent zones" because scientists have not been able to determine its function.
Nerves are composed of cells called neurons or Noronat. In order for the brain to feel and think and give commands to the muscles, neurons communicate with each other electrical and chemical signals.
Seizures or convulsions occur due to the presence of abnormal electrical activity in the brain.

Seizures or convulsions occur due to the presence of abnormal electrical activity in the brain.
Symptoms of seizures or convulsions vary from one person to another, according to the affected area of the brain. For example, if the affected area controlled on one muscle muscle has become static and devoid of motion or you may leave with violently.
You can get anyone a heart one of convulsions or spasms in his entire life. The epilepsy is that the person frequent convulsions or spasms impaired due to brain disease.

The causes of epilepsy
Half of the seizures or convulsions almost no known unknown reason. The other half of the seizures or convulsions shall be linked to diseases or injuries in the brain.
During the growth in the early years of childhood, significant growth is happening in the brain. And have the brain at this stage is at risk of some diseases because of infection or malnutrition or lack of oxygen. Some of these diseases is associated with epilepsy.

Develop brain neurons to become a complex network of connections. The defects that occur in this network during brain development that could lead to epilepsy.
After head hurt because of an accident or a stroke, the brain reform itself through a new network connections making. If these new network is abnormal, it is possible to cause convulsions or spasms.
The brain diseases, such as hydrocephalus (accumulation of a large amount of cerebrospinal fluid in the spinal brain) and meningitis, can lead to epilepsy.

The poisoning of the brain, such as lead poisoning and carbon monoxide, it can also lead to convulsions or spasms.
Also, drug use or illegal drugs and overdose of antidepressants can cause convulsions or spasms.
Sometimes, it might occur in the elderly diseases in the brain, such as brain tumors, strokes, infections and cerebral hemorrhages. These diseases lead to epilepsy.
Moreover, some types of epilepsy abound in some families, suggesting a genetic reasons.

Types of seizures
Due to the complexity of the brain and its functions there are more than 32 kinds of seizures or convulsions. There are many words to describe seizures or convulsions including:
Convulsions
Epileptic attacks
Seizures or convulsions tonic - Alrmaah
Most of the seizures or convulsions from a few seconds to a few minutes to continue and then stop naturally.

Valachtlajat or convulsions that are limited portion of the brain called the seizures, partial or focal seizures. Usually it called the derivative of the area of the brain that starts the name of them. In the seizures or partial seizures, the person may feel sudden feelings of joy or sadness, or sensations of smell or hearing or vision surprise.
There is another type of seizures or convulsions or seizures, called complex partial seizures. During this type of seizures or convulsions appear in the patient behaviors, such as frequent flutter eyes or move in a circle or a beating on the walls or move an arm or leg without being able to control the movement.
The seizures or convulsions, which spread to the rest of the brain called the generalized seizures or convulsions. These seizures or convulsions that can lead a person to:

Unconsciousness
the fall
Muscle spasms
Violent muscular movements in the whole body
Stare at the emptiness and the loss of the link with reality for a few seconds

Not all of the talk has convulsions or spasms epileptic considered. There are people who happen to have convulsions or spasms once in their lives would never be repeated.
Sometimes it can occur in the child convulsions or spasms during high temperature because of the diseases. In most cases this is not repeated seizures or convulsions if the injury did not occur in the brain.
While seizures or convulsions occur, the brain shows abnormal electrical activity can be recorded by a doctor on a special device called electroencephalogram or "AIG planning."

It can appear in some people-like seizures or convulsions behavior without the presence of abnormal electrical activity. These are called seizures or convulsions convulsions or spasms non-epileptic seizures or convulsions or false. He spoke for psychological reasons such as stress or the need to attract attention.
Some people know they are on the verge of injury convulsions or spasms due to the emergence of private feelings they have before the start of seizures or convulsions. These feelings are called "Aura" or "aura". The most common are wafts the smell of burnt rubber.

Diagnosis of epilepsy
The doctor recorded precedents sick the patient, being his blood tests, and resorts to a host of other medical tests to diagnose the presence of epilepsy when patient.
The test, which is commonly used for the diagnosis of epilepsy is an electroencephalogram or "AIG" layout. This test records the brain waves. In most cases of epilepsy doctor can read through this test to know whether the brain's electrical activity is normal facilities of convulsions or spasms.

In electroencephalography electrodes placed on the skin of the head and brain waves are electrical measurement and recorded. This test is painless. The doctor may prefer to conduct electrical brain "AIG" layout test the patient during sleep.
Magnetic brain doctor or "M AG" scheme has been going on. The goal of this test is similar to the aim of electroencephalography, but it measures the magnetic signals in the brain rather than electrical signals. Because of this difference, it is not in need of electrodes placed on the head. It is able to monitor the signals from brain regions deeper than the areas that can EEG electrode to reach it.

The doctor may be asked to perform Tafrsa imaging of the brain to see its internal structure. Examples Altafrsa imaging of the brain: brain MRI or "MRI", and a CT scan or "CTV", and positron emission tomography, or "PE t". These types of imaging allows the doctor to know if the brain is infected tumors Eau cysts can be a reason for the occurrence of seizures or convulsions.
Treatment of epilepsy
You can control the seizures or convulsions at more than 80% of patients with epilepsy treatment drug.
After the diagnosis of the type of seizures or convulsions, the doctor may recommend the patient to eat some kind of between more than 20 kinds of available medicines to control seizures or convulsions. The choice of medication is usually on the type of seizures or convulsions and the patient's age and his health condition.
Doctor prescribe medication and adjusts the dose according to the patient's condition. The doctor usually starts with a low dose and increase it if necessary, after each blood test.

Depending on the diagnosis and the doctor decides whether the patient can stop taking the drug or not. This depends on the results of the planning electroencephalogram and the time that has elapsed without any injury to the patient's convulsions or spasms.
If you stop the medicine suddenly, the patient can be convulsions or spasms more become infected, and be processed more difficult.
The side effects of drugs anti-epilepsy is relatively serious, namely:
Fatigue
overweight
Dizziness
Depression

When the doctor prescribe medication for a patient against epilepsy, he explains has its benefits and risks.
It can be sensitive to some patients of certain medications. In these patients see a doctor immediately if it appears they have any kind of rash.
In some cases, seizures or convulsions in children, can be a special diet rich in fat poor sugar can help reduce the frequency of seizures or convulsions. This must be done under the supervision of treatment to ensure a healthy child get proper nutrition.

You can resort to when medications fail to control seizures or convulsions surgery. The brain surgery to treat epileptic seizures or convulsions designed to remove part of the brain responsible for the abnormal electrical signals, ie, the part that causes seizures or convulsions. But these processes do not succeed, but at less than half of patients with epileptic seizures or convulsions.
There is another process called induction of the vagus nerve, may recommend some doctors. In this process, the surgeon for the purpose of electric tool under the skin in the upper chest. This tool will incite the vagus nerve, which is a large nerve passes in the neck. This incitement reduces the occurrence of seizures or convulsions in some patients. But this process is not suitable for all with seizures or epileptic convulsions.
Coexistence with epilepsy
When is controlled seizures or convulsions, most epilepsy patients to live a normal life. But for patients who are not complete control of seizures or convulsions have to take precautions that can affect their daily lives.

It not for patients with seizures or convulsions may be uncontrolled to lead the car, or to be exercised on serious machines. Most states do not grant driving license for a patient seizures or epileptic convulsions unless he proves that he is not to epileptic seizures or convulsions for a certain period of time. The length of this period varies from state to state.
It must be limited to business and hobbies practiced by a patient with epileptic seizures or convulsions on species that are not exposed to danger if he lost consciousness or attention for a few moments. It is a business and hobbies that should be avoided:
Pilotage
Car racing
Parachuting
Mountaineering
There are activities and sports can be let out on probation, such as:
Swimming
Leadership sailboat
Bicycles leadership

There are plenty of activities and sports safe for patients with epilepsy, such as running and volleyball. The patient should avoid sports where friction between the players because of seizures or convulsions can be precipitated even from a simple collision. So it is advisable not to exercise epilepsy patients football.
The effects of seizures or convulsions uncontrolled be more pronounced in children and young people, it may not be able to continue their education as normal.
Since some epilepsy drugs affect memory and concentration has epileptic child needs more time to learn and complete homework.

The pregnancy possible for women sick with epilepsy. But it must persevere on drugs, which he described her doctor throughout pregnancy. * The woman must infected epileptic seizures or convulsions tell your doctor specialist neurological diseases intention to pregnancy and childbearing, the doctor changes the medicines you are taking to build on it, because it is known that some of these drugs increase the risk of malformations in the fetus.
On epilepsy patients to avoid alcohol, drugs or illegal drugs, it greatly increases the likelihood of seizures or convulsions.

Dealing with an epileptic seizure
Can seizures or convulsions from a few seconds to a few minutes to continue. The vast majority of convulsions or seizures stop on their own. But in rare cases convulsions or seizures that lasts hours, and this requires urgent medical attention.

It should be on the watch of a person is exposed to convulsions or spasms to protect him from harm even regain consciousness and control over himself.
Here are a few tips can reduce the chance the patient harmed during epileptic seizures or convulsions:
Put the patient in the supine position on the floor or on a flat surface
Put something soft under the head of the patient
Rotate the patient's head to one side so as not to pull the vomit into their lungs during inhalation.

If a person with epileptic seizures or convulsions disturbed during seizures or convulsions, and moving all over the place, it should be around it remove everything that could be hurt or hurting others, such as a pot of boiling water or a hot iron.
It should be on the watch of a person is exposed to convulsions or spasms to pay attention to the following actions during epileptic seizures or convulsions:
Not enter anything forcibly in the patient's mouth
Not giving any medicine or water for the patient until the end of seizures or convulsions
Avoid trying to prevent violent movements by the patient

It can epilepsy patients to live a rich life, active, and they are returning to normal activity usually after seizures or convulsions. But seizures or convulsions goes on in some cases, the patient may not regain consciousness between seizures or convulsions. In both these cases you must call an ambulance.
If epilepsy patient stopped breathing ask ambulance and start CPR recovery.
If epilepsy patient stopped breathing ask ambulance and start CPR recovery.
Conclusion
Epilepsy is a brain disorder that affects millions of people. The seizures or convulsions are signs of epilepsy. But not all symptoms that resemble seizures or convulsions have been caused by epilepsy.
