Happy tennis player

If you are still having seizures, you may wish to check with your doctor before participating in racquet sports. In addition to possible danger from the equipment if you had a seizure, some racquet sports are very strenuous.

As mentioned in the introduction, over-exertion can trigger seizures in some people.
