Frontal Lobe Epilepsy

Frontal lobe epilepsy is a type of epilepsy where seizures originate in the frontal lobes of the brain, which are responsible for important functions like movement, decision-making, and emotions. These seizures can cause unusual behaviors, changes in muscle movements, or unexpected feelings. They can happen suddenly and may vary in duration. Unlike other types of seizures, attacks can occur while awake and might not always involve convulsions. Treatment often involves medications, and in some cases, surgery may be considered to help manage or reduce seizures. Understanding and managing this condition is crucial for those affected.
