Simple febrile seizures—convulsions triggered by sudden temperature spikes in children between 6 months and 5 years—are generally harmless and do not cause brain damage, lasting under a few minutes.

Gently place the child on their side in the recovery position, clear the surrounding area of hard objects, do not put anything in their mouth, loosen tight clothing, time the seizure, and seek immediate medical help.

Diagnosis requires a clinical history of two or more unprovoked seizures, supported by an awake and sleep digital electroencephalogram (EEG) to detect epileptic brain wave discharges and an MRI brain scan when indicated.

Many childhood epilepsy syndromes (such as benign rolandic epilepsy or childhood absence epilepsy) have an excellent prognosis and resolve completely as the nervous system matures in adolescence.
