The child has pneumonia and looks like a convulsion

Pneumonia in children looks convulsive and may be associated with fever, electrolyte imbalances,epilepsyAttack, meningitis and other factors. It is recommended that parents take their children to the hospital for treatment in time, and carry out targeted treatment after clarifying the specific cause.

1. Fever: If the child's pneumonia is more severe, it may lead to dysfunction of the thermoregulation center, thus causing high fever. If you don't cool down in time, it may cause abnormal firing of neurons in the brain, and then convulsions. Parents can follow the doctor's instructions to treat their children with drugs such as ibuprofen suspension, and also need to pay attention to drinking plenty of water;

2. Electrolyte disorder: because pneumonia in children will cause a large loss of water in the body, and it will also consume a lot of energy in the body, it will lead to excessive loss of potassium and sodium in the body, which will cause hypokalemia or hyponatremia, and will also affect the nervous system, resulting in convulsive symptoms. Parents can give their children potassium chloride sustained-release tablets, sodium chloride injections and other drugs for treatment under the guidance of doctors;

3、epilepsySeizures: If your child has epilepsy, they may also have seizures when exposed to external stimuli, such as loud startles or emotional overexcitement. At this time, it is necessary to take anti-epileptic drugs for treatment under the guidance of a doctor, such as carbamazepine tablets, phenytoin tablets, etc.;

4. Meningitis: It is mainly a disease caused by pathogenic microbial infection, such as bacterial infection or viral infection.When pathogenic microorganisms invade the brain, they induce an inflammatory response, resulting in increased intracranial pressure, and symptoms such as headache, nausea and vomiting are also common. When intracranial pressure continues to rise, tics may occur. Parents can give their children amoxicillin granules, cefixime granules and other drugs for treatment under the guidance of doctors.

In addition to the above, it can also be due to cerebral hemorrhage, etc.
