Patient's question:
Suddenly rolled my eyes white during a nap at noon, experienced full-body spasms, stiff limbs, pale complexion, as if in shock, lasting for 2 minutes. I pinched the Ren Zhong point to wake up, but then the spasms immediately repeated. The baby is fine, no fever or cold. What could be the reason? Urgent, urgent, urgent!Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be classified as infantile convulsions. There are many factors or causes that can lead to infantile convulsions. High fever convulsions, toxic encephalopathy, intracranial infection, tetany, and infantile spasms are common. It is also important to note conditions such as brain developmental defects, sequelae of brain damage, drug poisoning, and hypoglycemia.Guidance: The first step in treating infantile convulsions is to identify the underlying cause or factor. If it is high fever convulsions, cooling and symptomatic treatment are necessary. If there are other underlying conditions, symptomatic treatment should be combined with active treatment of the primary disease. If an infant experiences convulsions, they should be placed in a side-lying position, their collar should be loosened, and a tongue depressor wrapped in a handkerchief or a chopstick placed between their upper and lower teeth to prevent tongue biting. The infant should be kept calm, and unnecessary stimuli should be avoided. If the convulsing infant has a high fever, cool water, well water, or a 30%-50% alcohol bath can be used, or cold saline enemas can be administered. Additionally, Anaprox nasal drops or intramuscular antipyretic injections can be used. If the convulsions persist, the infant should be taken to the hospital immediately for treatment.
