Doctor's answer:

Hello, when the child has frequent episodes, it is essential to ensure someone is present to supervise and prevent them from being in a dangerous environment. Daily, it is crucial to ensure indoor safety by installing corner guards on furniture and placing foam on the floor. During episodes, place some clothing in the mouth to prevent tongue bites.
