Baby fever and convulsions first aid measures

The main manifestations of high fever and convulsions in babies are double eye gaze or upward gaze, cyanosis around the lips, foaming at the mouth, tonicity of the limbs and twitching of the limbs. At this time, parents must remain calm, do not panic, do not stuff the baby’s mouth directly with their hands, you can put a towel or soft objects or chopsticks directly into the baby’s mouth to avoid biting their own tongue when convulsing. Do not hold the baby too tightly, but move him/her to a spacious place to lie flat, so that the head is on the right side to avoid asphyxiation due to inhalation of vomit. You can press the acupuncture points such as Renzhong and Hegu to help stop the panic. At the same time, parents should send the baby to the nearest hospital as fast as possible for consultation and treatment. If a baby has a convulsion due to a simple fever, the convulsion will get better on its own and often will not last long. However, intracranial infection or bleeding should be ruled out as the cause of the convulsions, and oxygen and antispasmodic treatment should be administered promptly.
