Patient's question:
At 4:00 in the morning, I discovered my child had a fever and was having convulsions. Rolling of the eyes, foaming at the mouth.Test results: The test results showed that one blood parameter was slightly elevated. The doctor said there was inflammation.
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: This has never happened before. It was just fever without convulsions. Taking fever-reducing medication or getting an IV drip usually resolved the issue.
Help needed: I want to know what could cause such a situation and whether it will affect my child's health in the future.
Doctor's answer:
Your situation should be due to the child's high fever causing tics. Both high fever and tics can cause certain damage to the brain, and generally, if the frequency is low, the interference is not significant. In the future, it is essential to pay attention. When the child has a slightly elevated temperature and does not want to go to the hospital, you can give the child some fever-reducing medicine, ensuring the dosage is appropriate. Alternatively, you can use alcohol to wipe the child's palms, soles of the feet, and chest. The above advice is for the question "What are the symptoms caused by a child's fever?" and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
