During the growth process of a baby, convulsions in children often occur. Clinically, many convulsions in children are caused by high fever, such as high fever leading to febrile convulsions. This situation is very common and generally not too serious. After the child is 6 years old, the convulsions will heal and disappear. Will convulsions in children recur before the age of 6?
Childhood convulsions can recur because, as mentioned earlier, most convulsions are caused by high fever. However, children's physical functions are not fully developed, their resistance is low, and they are prone to catching colds and fever. Therefore, the possibility of recurrent convulsions in children is also very high. However, these convulsions generally do not have sequelae, and parents do not need to worry excessively.
When a child experiences convulsions, parents should help the child with physical cooling as soon as possible. If the high fever is severe and the body temperature is detected to be above 38.5 degrees Celsius, they should be sent to the hospital in a timely manner to achieve temperature regulation through medication intervention. Childhood convulsions must be actively treated to prevent the condition from worsening and leading to epilepsy.
In daily life, parents should pay attention to supplementing their children's nutrition, urging them to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and increase their intake of vitamins and proteins. Regularly taking children to participate in outdoor activities can help improve their physical fitness and enhance their ability to fight against cold viruses, which can also better reduce the probability of seizures in children.
