Analysis of the condition: Based on your description, the situation is similar to transient loss of consciousness, which is most likely caused by a seizure.Advice: In this case, it is more likely that the seizure is secondary to high fever. Seizures are caused by abnormal discharges of brain neurons, and in clinical practice, they can only be detected through an electroencephalogram (EEG) or brain topography. It is important to note that EEG and other tests can only detect seizure waves when the child is experiencing loss of consciousness. No seizure waves will be present during periods of no seizure.
It is recommended that you seek medical attention at a local reputable tertiary hospital in the neurology department. If the diagnosis confirms epilepsy, it is advisable to start taking antiepileptic medication promptly for treatment.
