When having a fever, some people may experience cramps, which are more common in children. It should be noted that fever and cramps are symptoms of abnormal central nervous system function in babies, and they are an urgent condition. Many parents feel particularly nervous when their ten month old baby experiences fever and cramps. So, what should I do if my ten month old baby has a fever and cramps?
At ten months old, babies in this age group are prone to fever and cramps. From clinical symptoms, babies may experience spasms in their limbs or facial muscles, sometimes accompanied by continuous twitching. At this point, the baby may also lose consciousness and flip their eyes upwards, appearing as if they are squinting.
Parents should immediately deal with the symptoms of fever and cramps in their babies. At this time, they should let the baby lie down immediately and adopt a lateral position, which helps the baby maintain smooth breathing and prevent vomit from blocking the baby's organs. However, it should be noted that there is no need to open the baby's mouth.
Because the baby still has a fever, to help the baby dissipate heat, you can take off the baby's clothes and let the baby blow an electric fan or turn on the air conditioning. However, it should be noted that the temperature should not drop too much at once, otherwise it will make the baby's limbs cold and cause shivering. This is something to be aware of.
