Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If your brother is below 10 years and had many episodes of seizures mostly accompanied with fever then it is called febrile convulsions which will gradually go away as age increases. But if it persists after the age of 10 years, then it has to be evaluated in detail.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Suhas Chauhan
