What to cope with a seizure in a child

It is said that in such cases, we have to open the mouth of the person concerned, but doctors suggest that it is not indispensable, although there is some risk that will bite the tongue. This will then be very annoying and even painful, but poses no danger.

Nor should we hold the child or talk to calm down. It is advisable to ensure that no damage in other parts of the body, and maintain calm. It is important to note if you have fever or if it does piss.

When seizures have stopped, it is consulting with the pediatrician. If you are prolonged or repeated too many times in a row, we need him to the hospital or emergency alert.
