Hello
Your daughter symptoms may suggest generalized tonic clonic seizure(GTCS).
She need proper evaluation for GTCS.
GTCS may be due to many reasons like idiopathic(cause not known),infection,tumour,post traumatic etc.
After proper clinical evaluation,she may need investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,contrast CT scan of brain,EEG etc.
She may need specific treatment for convulsion.
Get well soon.
Take Care
