Hello. Thanks for asking from HCM.


I can understand your concern. Your kid is having febrile fits. It is a type of seizure or fit caused by fever and it occurs mainly in less than 5 years old child.

Usually it subside with subsidence of fever but sometimes it may change into permanent seizure and persist. You have to consult paediatrician and get treatment for his fever as soon as possible.

Meanwhile at home,
: you can apply cold compresses to lower down his fever.
: Turn his head to side in case of frothing from mouth
: you can give him syrup paracetamol after proper prescription to treat fever

Hope it will help you. Thanks.

Take care.
