Some mothers have observed that their babies unconsciously move back and forth while sleeping, and sometimes their arms twitch twice, and sometimes their fingers also twitch like this. At first, it's okay, but the situation is not very serious. Later on, it becomes more obvious, and this condition often occurs frequently, similar to a child's convulsions. So what are the symptoms of convulsions in children?
1. Whole body twitching. The body is not under the control of the child, and the child appears to be confused and unaware of what is happening. The entire body is stiff and the muscles are twitching, making it difficult to control the child. The child's eyes may roll up or remain motionless, with no focus.
2. Muscle twitching in certain areas. A certain part of a child's body twitches, such as a muscle in the face or a twitch in the hands and feet. Generally, this condition does not last long and will stop within a few minutes at most. If a child continues to convulse in a certain area for about thirty minutes, the situation is quite serious and belongs to the state of convulsions.
3. Fever and convulsions. If a child accidentally catches a cold and develops a fever, and the fever persists, the child may also experience convulsions. However, if the fever subsides and does not recur, there is basically no problem. If this condition persists even after the high fever has subsided, there may be other illnesses, and it is best to undergo a full body examination.
