Shaking on One Side
There are two types of febrile seizures. Simple febrile seizures are common, short and typically do not occur more than once in 24 hours. Complex febrile seizures are more serious. They can be more frequent, last longer and show unusual patterns.
One notable symptom of a complex febrile seizure is that the shaking is localized to one body part or side of the body. If parents see this, they should call an ambulance. Anti-seizure medication may be needed.3‘Febrile Seizures.’ Nemours KidsHealth - the Web’s Most Visited Site About Children’s Health, kidshealth.org/en/parents/febrile.html
