What are the causes of epilepsy?

Patient's question:

I've been feeling particularly low lately and always feel tired, even when I'm fine. It's hard for me to stay alert and focused when doing things, and sometimes my hands and feet even twitch. That's why I'm too scared to drive now. After a thorough medical check-up, I found out it's epilepsy. What are the causes of epilepsy?

Doctor's answer:

The causes of epilepsy include various congenital developmental abnormalities, congenital hydrocephalus, corpus callosum-sacral iliac developmental abnormalities, cerebral cortex developmental abnormalities, congenital cerebral palsy, chromosomal abnormalities, etc. The harm of epilepsy is very severe. Once epilepsy is diagnosed, it is necessary to immediately take medication to control recurrence. A sufficient dose can control epilepsy without recurrence, and the factors that cause epilepsy are many, including congenital developmental abnormalities, congenital hydrocephalus, corpus callosum-sacral iliac developmental abnormalities, cerebral cortex developmental abnormalities, congenital brain, and chromosomal malformations.
