Febrile Seizures: A Calm Clear Guide – Episode 96 S3E9
When a child suddenly has a seizure, it can be one of the most frightening moments a parent will ever experience. In this episode of Ten Kids, Two Docs, Dr. Sylvia Bank and Dr. Vivian Carlin break down febrile seizures—what they are, why they happen, what parents should do in the moment, and why they are usually much less dangerous than they look.
They explain how common febrile seizures are, which ages they typically affect, why they aren't simply caused by a fever getting “too high,” and why aggressively treating every fever does not prevent them. Dr. Vivian also shares the personal stories of her child's febrile seizures.
