Answer
Based on the situation you described, the four-month-old baby may be suffering from a high fever seizure. The comprehensive prevention and treatment methods for high fever seizures include: when the baby has a cold and develops a fever again, it is advisable to take antipyretics early, without waiting until the temperature reaches 38.5 degrees; in addition, taking sedatives continuously for three days each time the baby has a fever can help prevent seizures. It is also important to give the child plenty of warm water to drink, keep warm, and avoid catching a cold.
