| Convulsions Description:
A convulsion or seizure is caused by the extreme excitement of neurons in the
brain. This burst of excitation of neurons lead to spurious messages to muscles
or a group of muscles that leads to involuntary contractions. At the time
of experiencing a convulsion or seizure the person is rarely aware of the
condition or surroundings and in cases of violent or extreme seizures or
convulsions can injure themselves. Some people are more prone to
convulsions than others but all will convulse if there is enough stimulation or
provocation. People who are prone to frequent convulsions are described as
having a low seizure threshold. As is the case in all symptoms convulsions
and seizures should not be treated without medical supervision. There are many
causes of convulsions that are life threatening even if the seizure may not be.
A good example is febrile convulsions in small children. The seizure is brought
on or provoked by the temperature but unless the underlying cause of the
elevated temperature is addressed, the risk of recurring seizure can not be
eliminated. Convulsions should only be treated at home after discussing it
with your doctor. Complementary Alternative Medicine can only be used in
consultation with your doctor as many may not be safe on top of prescription
medicine.
