Epilepsy is a significant risk factor for burns, especially in developing countries where untreated epilepsy is common and fires are used for cooking and heating. Mortality rates from burns are high due to lack of adequate burn care in developing areas. Prevention efforts like improving stove safety, housing standards, and epilepsy treatment could help reduce burn injuries and their substantial social and economic costs.
