Question

What causes a one-and-a-half-year-old child to suddenly develop a fever and seizures? Will it affect the child’s future health?

Answer

Disease Analysis: A one-and-a-half-year-old child who suddenly develops a fever accompanied by seizures may be experiencing symptoms of high fever convulsions. The child’s brain development is not yet complete, and their ability to inhibit stimuli is relatively weak, so even slight stimuli may trigger seizures. Guidance: Generally, a single episode has little impact on the child’s brain, but repeated occurrences may cause damage. After an episode, consider undergoing an EEG to determine if there are any long-term effects.
