Having convulsions is often very frightening, especially when it occurs in infants. Sometimes convulsions occur in the middle of the night, and even small children can experience muscle spasms all over their bodies. How to provide emergency treatment for baby convulsions?
1. The most important thing is to understand why the baby has convulsions, and whether the convulsions occur accidentally or frequently. Only by understanding these can we "prescribe the right medicine". Some children may have been startled during the day and experience one or two seizures while sleeping at night, which is quite normal. There is no need to worry too much, it will gradually improve naturally. Some are caused by certain diseases and require high attention.
2. There are many reasons for the baby's convulsions. Some children's body is hot, and convulsions caused by high fever. The best way to deal with this situation is to do some cooling work for the child before going to the hospital, such as wiping the limbs, palms and soles with alcohol or high Baijiu, to ensure that the child will not burn more seriously.
3. Some children inherit epilepsy from their parents, which can also cause frequent seizures. When dealing with this situation urgently, attention must be paid. Epilepsy is often accompanied by vomiting, so it is important to promptly remove foreign objects from the child's mouth to prevent them from blocking the trachea and causing other discomfort.
4. There is another situation that can cause babies to frequently experience convulsions, which is calcium deficiency. There is no special emergency treatment for this situation, and it can only be addressed by paying more attention to calcium supplementation in daily life.
