What is mean by atypical febrile convulsion
Fever is not dangerous; rather it is one of the protective mechanism of your body against any infection or inflammation. Yes, high rise of body temperature more than 105 degree F can result febrile convulsion, muscles rigidity or more heart beat, and still more high temperature may cause brain hemorrhage or organ failure, but in practically temperature from 100 F to 103 F will not result any problem (except in the case of a child who has a P/H of febrile convulsion record).
