Question
Can a child still have seizures even when they are asleep during a fever?
Answer
When a baby has a fever, they may sometimes experience fever-induced seizures while sleeping, known as febrile seizures. However, this usually does not indicate a severe medical problem and often resolves on its own after the fever subsides. First, you can use alcohol-based wipes to help lower the temperature, and then further investigate the cause of the fever, including common infections or other diseases. It is not recommended to self-medicate without professional diagnosis.
