Hello and welcome to health care magic. Thanks for your query.
Since your child is having tendency to develop convulsion during
fever episodes, it is very important to control her fever at present.
I would suggest you to give her calpol syrup along with cold water sponging
If fever persists inspite of above measures then you may have to
consult your doctor for further management ,to bring down fever as
well as to detect the foci of infection which is causing fever.
Wish you all the best
