Question
What should be the treatment for a child experiencing seizures during a fever?
Answer
The treatment for a child’s fever-induced seizures includes administering antiviral medication, antipyretics, and complementing with physical cooling methods such as drinking plenty of water and applying ice packs. When the fever exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, you can give ibuprofen or nimesulide as antipyretics, while also paying attention to observe the child’s mental state, appetite, and complexion. If seizures occur repeatedly, it is recommended to undergo further examination to rule out other possible causes of infection and receive targeted treatment based on the underlying cause.
