When a child experiences a tonic-clonic seizure, they may have repetitive body movements, convulsions, and loss of consciousness. Tonic-clonic seizures usually subside within a few minutes, but children may experience incontinence and cuts inside the cheek or on their tongue from biting down during the seizure.
Seizures are common among children with cerebral palsy because CP is caused by a brain injury occurring before, during, or shortly after birth. Brain injuries increase the chance for abnormal nerve activity to occur within the brain, which can result in seizures.
Epilepsy occurs in about one-third of all individuals with cerebral palsy, and the two conditions share many of the same causes. A lack of oxygen to the baby or an infection spread from mother to child, among other issues, can cause cerebral palsy. This makes seizures a fairly common side effect of cerebral palsy.
CP generally is diagnosed during the first or second year after birth. But if a childs symptoms are mild, it is sometimes difficult to make a diagnosis until the child is a few years older.
Someone with mild CP may not need any assistance or may have slight problems, while a person with severe CP might need special equipment or lifelong care. Cerebral palsy isnt progressive, meaning it doesnt necessarily get worse over time. Some symptoms may even change or get better as the child gets older.
