  1. Seizure Pain: Seizures themselves are generally not painful as they involve abnormal brain activity, not direct physical injury.

  2. Possible Discomfort: a. Muscle Soreness: Forceful muscle contractions during seizures can lead to soreness. b. Injuries: Falls or impacts during seizures may cause bruises or fractures. c. Headaches: Some individuals may experience headaches post-seizure.

  3. Recommendation: Consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and management to reduce risks and improve quality of life.
