  2、 When a child has a seizure, parents must remain calm. When a child has a seizure, the first thing to do is to flatten the child who is convulsing and tilt their head to one side to avoid inhaling secretions from their mouth and causing suffocation. Try not to stimulate the child, do not shake them forcefully, do not pinch or stuff anything, and wait for the child's convulsions to end before judging their reaction and breathing.

  3、 Some psychotropic drugs can be used to alleviate the mental state of children, reduce the frequency and occurrence of childhood epilepsy, and help treat childhood epilepsy. If the child's mental state is still poor, then you can try to find a psychologist to help restore the child's mental balance.

  4、 Generally speaking, when a child has a seizure, do not rush to the hospital. Some parents, especially those who are experiencing their children's epileptic seizures for the first time, may rush to take them to the hospital, but often suffocate the child due to improper handling, increasing the risk to their lives. You should immediately call 120 and wait for professional medical personnel to handle it.
