ABSTRACT
Epilepsy is one of the chronic disorder of brain affecting world wide. It
describes continous seizures with brief episodes and spreads entire
body, causes loss of vital organ functions and alters the brain functions
and causes repeated seizures. The prolong rapid electrical discharges
occurs in the brain cells and distributed across the lobes, causes severe
contraction and relaxation of skeletal muscles few or more per a day.
The release of various inflamatory cells is responsible for several
electrical discharges in the brain. The seizure events originates frontal
lobe followed by altered consciousness, motor activites and produces
cognitive,mood disorders. The elimination of seizures depends on
marking the gamma aminobutyric acid and glutamate receptors.The
human brain weighs about 1,400 grams, appears like a large pinkish gray colour. Brain is
surrounded by three protective layers and connected with various lobes. The nervous system
is collaborated with neurons and passes the information one another and acts as a decision
and communication center. Present scenario individual human population get exposed to
developing the disease because of their health care issues and life style factors impacting the
quality of life. The diagnosis rely on various neurological examinations and pathological
studies. The management of epilepsy depends on anti epileptic medications and non
medications approaches. The proper diagnosis and modification of life style factors plays a
crucial role in management of epilepsy.
Keywords: Contraction, Relaxation, Hemispheres, Inflamation, Electrical discharges.
