Steven Pavlakis MD, attended the Pediatric Neurology Medical School at Brown University and did his residency and fellowship at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center. In this video he describes a febrile seizure. He assures that they don't hurt the child when they occur with a fever and the child is under age six. He answers whether these children are prone to epilepsy, if they'll receive Spinal Taps in the hospital, and how to decrease the fever. For more information please visit www.DrMDK.com
