Question
How to handle children’s muscle spasms and febrile convulsions?
Answer
When a child has muscle spasms and febrile convulsions, you can take the following steps:
- Use alcohol to bathe the child to help lower their temperature.
- Identify the cause of the child’s fever, as it can be caused by various factors, including infections, connective tissue diseases, or malignant tumors.
- Do not rush to take medication before determining the cause.
- It is recommended that parents take their child to a professional hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible to alleviate their discomfort and prevent the condition from worsening. In addition, for children who may have infantile spasms, timely and correct treatment is crucial. Improper treatment or delayed treatment can lead to a rapid deterioration of the condition, causing serious effects on the child. Therefore, seeking regular treatment at a specialized hospital early on is key.
