Febrile convulsion which is said to be seizures that occur in a child with high fever of over 39C is usually related to a symptom of a disease condition. It is usually occurs in children from the age of 6 months and five years. Febrile convulsion alone can not kill a child despite the symptoms presented but it poses a threat to child survival when it is poorly managed or mishandled due to superstitious beliefs.
