Epilepsy is a neurological condition identified by recurring seizures, which are quick, uncontrollable electrical disruptions in the brain. One of the most common fallacies regarding epilepsy is that it is invariably accompanied by convulsions or falls to the ground. Seizures can take many forms, including staring spells, short confusion, muscle spasms, and even minor movements such as lip-smacking or repetitive hand gestures.
Epilepsy is a challenging and misunderstood disorder that has a tremendous impact on the lives of individuals and families. Despite the myths and misconceptions, there is a story of tenacity, overcoming obstacles, and finding hope.
Join the PACE Hospitals Podcast with Dr Pravallika Dutta – consultant neurologist at PACE Hospitals, Hitech City, Hyderabad, India, to unravel the mysteries of epilepsy, including its different forms, therapies, and effects on individuals and their families.
