What reason is infantile febrile convulsion

The main manifestations of febrile convulsion are: sudden unconsciousness, head backward, eyes up, mouth foaming, forced or paroxysmal twitch of muscles on face and limbs, and incontinence of urine and feces in some children. Generally, the onset time of febrile convulsion is relatively short, generally without sequelae.

Any sudden high fever in children may cause febrile convulsion, and high fever is also the most common cause of febrile convulsion in children. Because this stage of children's brain development is not perfect, inhibition ability is poor, coupled with this period of children's immunity is low, even weak stimulation can cause strong reaction in the brain.

The onset of convulsion in children is acute, if not timely and effective treatment, convulsion time is too long or recurrent convulsions, can make brain cells damaged, so as to affect children's intellectual development, leaving irreversible sequelae. When febrile convulsion occurs in children, parents should not panic and take positive and effective measures
