Is it normal for newborns to have convulsions?

Patient's question:

Description of the problem: Doctor, my baby often suddenly opens his eyes wide while sleeping, flails his small hands, and then starts crying loudly. Is this a seizure? How long will it take to improve? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you can give him Oral Hong Kong Xinglin Tang's Baobao Jingfeng San to eat and try it for a period of time. Also, was there any compression of the fetal head during delivery and did he have a high fever? If the condition doesn't improve after taking the medicine, it is recommended to seek medical attention from a pediatrician as soon as possible.
