Question
My baby always rolls their eyes upwards, and when they do, their legs are stretched out and their arms are straight. What’s going on? Initially, it wasn’t severe, but now it happens multiple times a day, and it has been going on for half a month.
Answer
The child’s twitching is due to a high fever and needs to be addressed promptly by cooling the body. Additionally, it’s appropriate to take some calcium supplements, observe closely, and administer some calming medications such as Luminal. If the child develops a high fever again, it must be treated promptly to avoid recurrence of the twitching.
