Children with low-grade fever and convulsions

Some children may have convulsions due to fever. It is very dangerous for children to have convulsions due to fever. It is especially easy to cause encephalitis. If encephalitis is not treated in time, it will cause damage to the child's cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system. If necessary, it may also affect the child's intellectual development. Therefore, if a child is sick, you must take the child to see a doctor in time. So what causes a child's low-grade fever and convulsions?

First of all, we need to rule out disease factors. Some low-grade fever convulsions are mostly caused by diseases, such as encephalitis, influenza, myelitis, etc. If the child has no disease factors but still has low-grade fever convulsions, then we should consider the possibility of tuberculosis. Generally speaking, lowering the child's body temperature appropriately and supplementing calcium are auxiliary treatments for low-grade fever convulsions. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up first, supplement your child with calcium, control the body temperature in time, and exercise to strengthen the body.

A variety of illnesses can cause a low-grade fever. Low immunity, long-term psychological stress and emotional instability can cause persistent low-grade fever of unknown cause. A problem with any system in the body can cause a persistent low-grade fever. What are the causes of low-grade fever? Some low-grade fevers are caused by bacterial infections.

Children have weak resistance and adults may also experience weakness in their limbs and dizziness when they have a fever, so a comprehensive examination should be conducted as soon as possible. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for relevant examinations to avoid worsening of the cause of the fever.

There are many causes of fever in children, which can be clinically divided into infectious and non-infectious. Infectious causes are more common, such as colds. For fever, the cause must be identified first and treated accordingly. When the body temperature is too high, it is easy to cause high fever convulsions in children, so it is also necessary to control the body temperature.

The main methods of cooling down are drugs and physical cooling, such as placing ice cubes on the forehead and neck, cold compresses with wet towels, rubbing the neck and armpits on both sides with 30%-35% alcohol (or white wine diluted with water). Specific medications are best used under the guidance of a doctor.
