Question
Male, 3 years old, my child has recently had a cold with fever, persistent coughing, and runny nose. The condition keeps fluctuating. What are the possible causes of fever and convulsions in children?
Answer
Children’s fever and convulsions may be due to the body’s internal substances, caused by viruses, bacteria, and their metabolites, affecting the temperature regulation center, leading to a drop in the temperature regulation set point. Fever can be an early sign of certain diseases. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for testing and symptomatic treatment.
