The child twitched and foamed at the mouth! Be sent to the hospital for more than 5 minutes.

Children's heat spasm should not be gagged! Keep breathing smoothly.

Look at the child's eyes hanging, limb twitching, foaming at the mouth, cyanosis and other symptoms. , often make parents panic. Some parents even put rice spoons, soup spoons, towels and other items in their children's mouths to prevent them from biting their tongues.

Children with convulsions need to prevent head impact and keep the respiratory tract open.

However, this behavior is absolutely unacceptable. Most of the causes of convulsions in children are not seizures, but febrile convulsions are the most common. But whether it is a simple fever, convulsions or seizures, the first time should be to protect the children and send them to the nearest hospital. Never put anything in the child's mouth, otherwise it may cause suffocation and other injuries.

Zhang Mingyu, director of pediatric neurology department of Changhua Christian Hospital, said that parents should keep calm and pay attention to whether there is any danger of injury when they find that their children have convulsions. Pay special attention to whether the head is hit and whether the respiratory tract is clear. Most seizures will stop by themselves within a few minutes, and the chance of immediate life-threatening is extremely low. However, if the convulsion does not stop for more than 5 minutes, it needs to be urgently sent to the nearest hospital for treatment.

If the convulsion lasts for more than 5 minutes, you need to see a doctor to find out the cause.

Director Zhang Mingyu said that the first thing to do is to find out the cause of convulsion, besides immediate emergency treatment. Some dangerous diseases can also be convulsed, such as head trauma and intracranial hemorrhage, which may cause life-threatening or sequelae if not diagnosed in the golden treatment time. Recently, a pupil convulsed in his sleep. After being sent to the hospital, the result was cerebral hemangioma bleeding. Emergency surgery was performed on the day of hospitalization, and he was discharged after successful treatment.

Although children's convulsions will make parents nervous and worried, as long as they are handled properly, most children can still recover without leaving sequelae. Simple thermal spasm has been confirmed in animal experiments and clinical follow-up reports, and will not affect intelligence or learning ability.
