This is a very vague question and we need more details on the extent of the pain, type of seizures you have, medication taken etc. Depending on the type of seizure, I speak from experience of my own tonic clonic seizures, which always affect the right leg and arm. Once the seizure has stopped, it is natural for one to feel pain after constant seizing of the leg and arm muscles, either straight away or a few hours later. I know the muscles in my leg and arm hurt for many days afterwards due to tension of a seizure.

Thank you for your answer it helps a lot.

Hope this clarifies some of your question... Everyone is different and what may affect me, might not affect you the same way. Having a seizure exhausts the body, whether it's muscles, tiredness or more.
