What Is Leigh Syndrome?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
7. Seizures
Our body’s cells communicate with each other with help from electrical impulses. The brain is no exception, and there is a constant flow of electrical impulses flowing through the brain, and from the brain to other parts of the body. If we wish to move our fingers, for example, then an electrical signal will be sent to make the appropriate muscles contract.
In cases of a seizure, the brain will experience a surge in electrical impulses throughout the brain. This can cause a number of symptoms, including the rapid contraction and relaxation of the patient’s muscles. Seizures are often a sign of something serious, so get them checked out if you have not done so already.
