Patient's question:
The son is now just 2 years old. He has seizures whenever he has a fever. From birth to now, he has had 6 seizures. Each time, it starts with 2 tremors, then his eyes roll up, his teeth are clenched tightly, and his whole body convulses.Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: There are many reasons that can cause a child's fever, with common causes being infections such as viral or mycoplasma infections. A complete blood count may be normal, and there may be repeated fever episodes before the inflammation is effectively controlled. If the child's other aspects, such as mental state, appetite, and complexion, are good, the condition should not be a major issue.Suggestions:
1. Administer antiviral treatment, such as ribavirin or Si Ji Kang Wei He Ji (Four Seasons Antiviral Mixture). Consider a mycoplasma antibody test to rule out mycoplasma infection.
2. Give fever-reducing medication, such as ibuprofen or nimesulide, when the child's temperature exceeds 38.5°C. Encourage the child to drink more water and combine it with measures like ice packs or alcohol cooling.
