A seizure is a sudden change in the brain's normal electrical activity. During a seizure, brain cells fire uncontrollably at up to four times their normal rate, temporarily affecting the way a person behaves, moves, thinks or feels. There are two major types of seizures: 1  Primary generalized seizures â The seizure affects the entire cerebral cortex, the outer portion of the brain that contains the majority of brain cells. 2  Partial (focal) seizure â The abnormal firing of brain cells begins in one region of the brain and remains in that one region.
Seizures are symptoms of a brain problem. They happen because of sudden, abnormal electrical activity in the brain. When people think of seizures, they often think of convulsions in which a person's body shakes rapidly and uncontrollably. Not all seizures cause convulsions. There are many types of seizures and some have mild symptoms. Seizures fall into two main groups. Focal seizures, also called partial seizures, happen in just one part of the brain.
