Question

A 3.5-year-old girl has been suffering from persistent high fever at home for several days. Today, she suddenly exhibited body twitching symptoms. What should I do if my child has a seizure?

Answer

Firstly, you need to identify the cause of the child’s seizure to determine the appropriate treatment. When a child is having a seizure, it’s crucial to keep the airway clear to prevent further difficulty breathing. You can use chopsticks or another object to quickly open the child’s mouth to prevent tongue biting and seek medical treatment promptly. Since the conditions of different patients vary, treatment methods also differ, it is recommended to go to a professional hospital for detailed examinations as soon as possible so that appropriate treatment methods can be selected based on the condition.
