Hello. According to the child's condition, convulsions began when the fever reached 38.1 degrees. The eyes rolled back, the fists clenched tightly, the lips turned purple, and there was some foam at the corners of the mouth. The duration was about 5 minutes. Later, they were sent to the local municipal hospital by ambulance. The CT scan was normal, and the blood test for trace elements was also normal. However, the white blood cell count was 23,000, still suggesting a high likelihood of febrile seizures. Treatment should be focused on the underlying cause. When the temperature exceeds 38 degrees, it is necessary to promptly use antipyretic drugs and physical cooling methods to control the body temperature.
