Patient's question:
The baby is 2 years and 8 months old. After having a fever and being sick two days ago, the baby started to kick his right leg hard on top of his left leg before going to sleep. Then, the baby clenched both fists tightly, stared eyes wide, bit down hard, and breathed rapidly. This lasted for about 10 seconds. After that, it took another 10 seconds before the actions repeated. This continued until the baby fell asleep. The baby sweated profusely from exhaustion, but after falling asleep, everything returned to normal. During the day, the baby was also normal. If the baby wakes up early in the morning, this situation might occur again.Doctor's answer:
