Hi
Welcome to Health care magic

It seems from the history that your brother is hhaving seizures following head injury.
The main treatment for seizure is by drugs.
However if there are surgical causes like chronic subdural hemorrhage or cerebral edema surgery can be done.
Do consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
