A member asked:

Could it happen that a head injury 'trigger' epilepsy or other seizure-like problems?

Could happen: You do not express if you do have seizure issue, but post-traumatic epilepsy is not rare. Occasionally, an immediate head injury can be associated with a one time seizure, and no future risk beyond. Get an expert opinion, as medicine may be advised.

Yes: Head injuries can cause seizures if there is structural damage.
