In cases of Febrile seizure, the recurrence can be controlled by controlling the fever in time and not allowing to become high grade.
Seizure generally comes, when a child has high grade fever.
So the temperature documentation should be done and paracetamol or any other antipyretic should be give as soon as the fever is above hundred. Cold sponging of whole body and forehead should also be done to decrease the temperature at earliest.
Next Steps
Visit a pediatrician for clinical evaluation and workup of seizure, so that need of anti epileptic drugs can be weighed.
