2024-01-14 06:00:55

Febrile seizures are seizures that occur in children without neurological impairment between the ages of six months and five years with a temperature greater than 38°C that is not caused by a central nervous system infection.

You need to bring down the temperature if you see that the child is feeling unwell. Suppose a baby with a temperature of 38 is active, plays, eats – then we calmly monitor his condition, it is not necessary to lower the temperature, you can only use physical methods of cooling – drinking plenty of fluids, wiping with warm water, ventilating the room. If at a temperature of 37.5 the child is lethargic, weak, capricious, and complains of a headache, we use an antipyretic drug.
