Patient's question:
The baby had a high fever seizure at 27 months. The exact temperature is unclear; after going to the hospital, it dropped to 38 degrees. Fever-reducing medication was given before the seizure. It has been almost a year now, and the child has had fevers again, with the highest reaching 39.2 degrees. The child has never attended kindergarten because of the fear of inadequate care leading to another seizure. I would like to ask about the likelihood of recurrence in the child's current condition and whether it is safe for them to attend kindergarten.Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: 1. High fever convulsions are most common in children. In children aged 0-7, what is referred to as high fever convulsions is when infants and young children, after examination and advice, are confirmed to have fever and convulsions caused by upper respiratory tract infections or tonsillitis. Fever convulsions caused by infections of the central nervous system, lungs, urinary tract, gastrointestinal tract, etc., do not fall within the scope of high fever convulsions. Treatment should combine physical cooling with medication.
