My grandfather recently appeared convulsive symptoms. The doctor said that we should pay attention to the fact that the elderly are prone to epilepsy. Patients with this disease should be treated as soon as possible. Now I will tell you whether epilepsy will be inherited from other generations.

Will epilepsy be inherited from other generations

First: epilepsy will not be contagious, but will be inherited, epilepsy has a genetic tendency, but the impact on the next generation is not 100%. Generally speaking, only 5% of children with epilepsy have epilepsy.

Second: epilepsy is not contagious, but epilepsy is hereditary. A large number of genetic studies have shown that epilepsy is indeed a hereditary disease, including primary and secondary epilepsy. The pathogenesis of epilepsy can be divided into internal and external causes. What we call heredity is the internal cause of epilepsy, and the damage to the brain is the external cause of epilepsy.

Third: epilepsy is hereditary, and in the relatives of epilepsy, the closer the blood relationship is, the higher the incidence rate will be, the lower the incidence. But the heredity of epilepsy is also aimed at the type of epilepsy, many patients with epilepsy belong to acquired epilepsy, the genetic probability of acquired epilepsy is very small, it is suggested that if you want children, for the health of children, you should go to the hospital to do a check, in the decision.

Although the genetic probability of male patients is low, it is recommended to choose regular epilepsy treatment and then consider marriage and childbirth. The treatment scheme of repairing damaged neurons can be considered to repair damaged neurons, balance their abnormal discharge and completely eliminate seizures.
