hi my name is Sue while in the store shopping today a man beside me fell over and had a seizure, ive had some training but not alot with this........just wondering if i did the right thing in helping him i had help come and we tried to keep him calm and relaxed but he started turning blue.....is this normal we kept cold cloths on him and kept talking to him and he finally came around, i was wondering if this was a granmal seizure
Hi, Thanks for using the Chat Doctor.First I like to congratulate you for giving first aid and taking him away from risks. Grand mal involves whole body. Associated with aura before seizure and then little depression after seizure. Keeping him calm, relaxed, Loosening his tight Chat Doctor.  Cold water won't help him much. Turning bluish is due to vascular phenomenon due to reduced blood supply to body (periphery) during seizure. Usually he'll recover from it. Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help. Thanks get well soon....
