What causes a seizure in a seemingly healthy teen boy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Seizures in teens: There are many things that can cause a seizure in a teen. Most common causes are: infection, toxicity (drugs or other substances), new onset seizure disorders, and tumors. Even water intoxication can cause seizures in otherwise healthy teens. Your doctor can help you determine the cause of the teen's seizure, rarely they are just a fluke and don't happen again.
