A member asked:
Can i get a seizure due to tonsil issues?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps: If you have a severe infection of the tonsils, such as an intense streptococcal infection, or the gradual acquisition of infection affecting brain, seizures can and do occur. Another outcome of an untreated head and/or sinus infection could be a cavernous sinus thrombosis which could lead to stroke and seizures.
