Can epilepsy cause brain damage?

The question here was "CAN epilepsy cause brain damage?" The answer is an unequivocal, "YES, it can" Frequent and/or prolonged seizures can indeed cause brain damage. However, most people that have Epilepsy are properly diagnosed, treated and monitored, so medication can assist them to live normal lives and reduce this risk. Often someone who has Epilepsy has it as a result of damage to the brain, like a traumatic head injury in something like a car accident. Unfortunately, undiagnosed or untreated epilepsy -- or poor compliance with medications and treatments --- can trigger a seizure which could cause a car accident. For that reason, anyone who has had a seizure must surrender their driver's licence until it no longer presents as a hazard. There are specific guidelines available from the State or Provincial Departments of Transport in your area.
