10 Symptoms of Cerebral Palsy
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #5: Seizures
A seizure is an electrical surge in the brain that may be caused by chemical changes in nerve cells resulting in convulsion of the body and possible loss of consciousness. While seizures are common in children with cerebral palsy, it is important to know that not all will be affected by it.
Children with cerebral palsy usually experience partial and generalized seizures. Generalized seizures affect the whole brain while partial seizures affect only part of the brain.
