[|Human|] my son had a stroke when he was before he was born, he has spastic hemiplegia, cerebral palsy on his right side of his body, he also has chiari 1 malformation in his brain, if he was struck in his head could or would it cause seizures, he has been hit in his head at school and I m worried it might cause seizures to start, I was told by his dr that it could and that strokes and seizures go hand and hand, just no age of when
[|AI|]  Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! I understand your concern and would explain that your sons brain has been damaged since birth (probably perinatal hypoxia). This damages to his brain, are not only the cause of motor deficits and a delayed psycho-motor development, but also can cause seizures, as a result of the dysfunction of those brain regions. You should know that seizures in this case are more probable to occur during the first years of life, but can also occur later. A head trauma can induce them, as it can cause a new imbalance in the brain cell function and inflammation. If he starts having seizures, the treatment with antiepileptic Chat Doctor.  Hope to have been helpful! Best wishes,
