Absence Seizure – Symptoms & Causes

Stroke

A stroke can increase the risk of having an absence seizure. In general, this health issue suddenly disrupts the electrical activity in the brain and causes some injuries in this organ. This leads to the formation of many scar tissues, which can trigger seizures. While there are many kinds of strokes, those who have a hemorrhagic stroke tend to be at the highest risk, especially during the first month after the condition occurs. [9]
