A sentence and a paragragh need to be urgently revised

Dear all
Would you please revise a sentence and a paragragh?

1.They may decrease their physical activities for fear of seizures provocation, but not for health limitation, especially if their epilepsies are mild.
2. A potential limitation of our study is that the Chinese-English bilinguals, but not the native English speakers handled back translation. However, the quality of back translation did not decrease for that. Another potential limitation is that the cultural adaptation of this Chinese version was not flawless. All items can be well understood, but a few contents in this questionnaire are not completely consistent with the life style of Chinese adolescents, which may slightly influence the results of our study.

Thank you very much!
kind regards

Thank you very much.
"but not for health limitation", I want to say the health of these patients do not limit their phsycal activity. Their physical fitness is good. These patients decrease their physical activity only because they are afraid of provoking a seizure.
