Can a seizure cause injury to the brain, or bodily injury?
The average seizure does not have any lasting effects on the brain. However, it can be a warning sign of increased pressure in the brain, so if you have seizures, you need to let your doctor know about the type, frequency and intensity. A seizure usually does not cause injury, but there is greater danger if it occurs while swimming, diving, or in a situation where a fall could cause an injury.
