Urination
A child having a febrile seizure cannot control their body. Even children well past potty training may lose control of their urine or soil their pants during a febrile seizure.1‘Febrile Seizures: What Are They, Symptoms, Treatment & Prevention.’ Cleveland Clinic, my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/7001-febrile-seizures
