Best Answer

Seizures are caused by unusual electrical activity in the brain. A back injury would not directly cause that to happen. It is possible that someone with a back injury could also happen to have seizures. If seizures started around the same time as the back injury, then it would be important to know how the back injury was caused and if something else could have happened at the time which led to the start of seizures. Only a doctor that could examine the person could establish if there is any connection.

If a fall caused some serious damage to the head and brain, then there is a possibility of their being seizures resulting from the brain injury. If the fall doesn't cause damage to the brain, then there would not be a risk of seizures.
