Can Levator Ani Syndrome Cause Tensing Up Of All Muscles To The Point Of Breaking Some Capillaries?
Hi there, My husband has levator anal syndrome, last nights episode caused a seizure. I was scared to death because I personally never witnessed one. He turned bright red and tensed every muscle in his entire body to the point of breaking some capiliaries . We called 911 and he went to the hospital. Can this syndrome trigger this and why now after 12 yrs of having this?

There is no relation of levator ani syndrome with generalised tonic clonic convulsions.
It's sue to other causes which requires further investigation and work up.
Wishing him a happy and healthy life.
Take care
