A seizure is the physical findings or changes in behavior that occur after an episode of abnormal electrical activity in the brain. The term seizure is often used interchangeably with convulsion.. Convulsions occur when a person's body shakes rapidly and uncontrollably. During convulsions, the person's muscles contract and relax repeatedly. There are many different types of seizures.
When seizures appear to result from abnormal activity in just one area of your brain, they're called focal (partial) seizures. These seizures fall into two categories. Focal seizures without loss of consciousness (simple partial seizures). These seizures don't cause a loss of consciousness.
