What are the reasons for muscle cramps in children without fever?

Patient's question:

My daughter had a cramp (it lasted only for two or three minutes; she was a bit unclear-minded during the cramp and then fell into a deep sleep). She didn't have a fever. We did a CT scan, an EEG, and checked for trace elements, but everything came back normal. What could be the reason?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that you pay attention to keeping your baby warm to avoid catching colds and other illnesses. Drink warm water frequently, take your baby out for appropriate outdoor activities often, and add supplementary foods appropriately to boost your baby's immunity. Avoid prolonged high fever seizures to prevent hypoxia in the brain tissue. The most common cause of feverless seizures is calcium deficiency. It is advisable to visit the hospital for a check-up, as it is highly suspected to be severe calcium deficiency or symptoms of epilepsy.
