Your son has what we call febrile seizures,which may occur up to 3 years of age(sometimes 6 years),and is INDEPENDENT of degree of fever,and occurs without any abnormalities in the brain. Make sure to reduce fever immediately by sponging and paracetamol. Tab frisium is to be given whenever fever occurs,to prevent seizures,for 2 days.
