I'm happy I'm finally cured from herpes virus, all thanks to Doctor Salami on RUclips for curing me with his herbal products. Contact him for any type of illness today and be free too.

[@thekitolomes383]

How long did it take her to get back to normal

[@sv_surron]

@@thekitolomes383 It took about 30-40 mins till she was kind of normal. the entire thing was a nightmare.

So is it ok for the baby to turn blue at the peak of this seizure?

[@memorygumbo8479]

My child just had one now and I don't know what to do and he had high temperature and he was just saying his ear is painful

[@rjlplondon]

Our daughter just had one yesterday, absolutely terrifying. Is the child breathing when they have these seizures? We couldn’t tell if ours was or not but she did start to go a grey colour which makes me think she was barely breathing. Would be very reassuring for next time to know she is breathing even the smallest amount.

[@immobilienporecistrien]

same happend to us today it was apsuloutly terrifing

[@iamfoxru]

*FAVORITE CONVULSION*

[@meganoyaski2637]

I had this type of seizure as a baby. I was around 18 months old and my mother was giving me a bath. She said that I was there one minute, then suddenly fell forward into the tub. Still hear about this today and I'm 22 haha

[@fidam3838]

Thanks
The first seizure is always painful 😫 😢

[@sabrinarafiq332]

what if a child had cyanosis during a febrile seizure?? what should be done?

[@littleghost7964]

Please I need the answer to this question too. My son turns blue. Is this suffocation. And if oxygen is not flowing to the brain wouldn’t that issue lead to brain being damaged

[@Miguel-jn5bi]

If your not medically trained call 911
If your trained and
If you have a BVM begin to bag / oxygenate and call paramedics to transfer to a pediatric center.
Prolonged seizures are dangerous.
Many things need to be ruled out.
May need a CT scan
Kids who do not return to their baseline may need to be admitted for further study
The first seizure is free.
Meaning we don't treat the first seizure.
Only 20% chance you might have a second.
We don't want to commit you to life long medications.
But a second seizure, then you have an 80% chance of further seizures

[@pediatric_doctor_at_home]

@@Miguel-jn5bi Spot on!

[@littleghost7964]

Children with Febrile Seizures are they considered to have a low immune system

[@thomasanderson1416]

So how do you manage the cyanosis and prolonged seizure?

[@havalmuhammad7414]

Good question

[@mimudase]

@@havalmuhammad7414
