If a member of my family has a seizure, how do i immediately treat it? should i move him? not? what do i do?
Aug 5, 2014

Dr. Zakia Dimassi Pediatrics
When an individual goes into a convulsion, the best thing to do before immediately moving them to the emergency room is to have them lie down on their side (to avoid tongue swallowing) and place a piece of cloth in their mouth (to avoid tongue biting). If you happen to have a source of oxygen at home, oxygen administration by face mask is also necessary.
