What are you supposed to do if your child goes into seizures from fever?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Take them to peds.: Your child should be seen asap by a pediatrician or family doctor. This may be febrile seizures, but could also represent CNS infection or other serious conditions. Do not try to manage this at home.
