Why does a child have hot hands and feet but no temperature?


Causes of sweating in adults

Excessive sweating of the feet or palms can be caused by the following reasons:

  • Liver diseases. Very hot palms and feet with high fatigue may indicate that the liver is damaged.
  • Feet may burn due to allergies. Most often it manifests itself in the presence of chemicals or cosmetics, taking certain medications, or eating certain foods.
  • If blood sugar levels rise, adults' feet or palms may also begin to sweat and burn a lot. Sweating is also accompanied by headaches and thirst. If you have these symptoms, see your doctor.
  • With a lack of B vitamins in the human body, the immune system is impaired and the functioning of the nervous and endocrine systems deteriorates. Because of this, your feet and palms often sweat and produce odor. You need to consult a doctor, start taking vitamins, and eat a rationally balanced diet.
  • The foot in the area of ​​the big toe may become hot due to the formation of a bone or a splinter in the skin.

If you experience severe sweating of the feet, it is important not to look for the causes of this condition yourself, but to consult a doctor to take the necessary measures.

Also, the legs of adults can burn due to prolonged standing. In this case, it is enough to give your feet a chance to rest.

Shoes

Quite often, parents tend to blame themselves for their child’s foot problems. Mothers feel guilty that they may have chosen the wrong shoes for their child, which caused a violation of the anatomy of the foot . Evgeny Komarovsky reassures parents - deformation of the legs in no way depends on shoes. Since a person was originally born into the next world without shoes, they are not so necessary for him from a biological and physiological point of view.

Causes of sweating in children

If your child constantly has hot feet or palms, you need to check his health. Since such a symptom may indicate that hyperhidrosis, an infectious or bacteriological disease is developing. The reasons may be different and the ways to solve the problem may also be different.

Sweating in children under 2 years of age

A newborn may sweat due to adaptation to the outside world or incorrect selection of clothes.

If a month-old baby has red palms, it can be assumed that in this way he is improving the process of heat exchange.

The causes of sweating in a baby are as follows:

  • the baby’s body’s reaction to the correct formation of the internal systems;
  • change in air temperature in the room or outside;
  • development of hyperhidrosis due to heredity;
  • development of rickets.

If the baby is healthy, without signs of rickets, excessive sweating will go away on its own after the formation of the heat exchange system is completed.

Sweating in children 2 – 12 years old

Causes of sweating feet and palms in children aged 2 – 12 years:

  • Unbalanced diet, consumption of large amounts of fast carbohydrates, sweet or fatty foods.
  • Excessive fluid intake.
  • Wearing clothes made of low-quality materials that irritate the skin, do not allow air to pass through, and do not allow moisture and heat exchange to pass normally.
  • If you do not exercise your child from childhood, doing even a simple exercise as an adult can cause a large amount of sweat to be produced. This is explained by the fact that the child’s body is not prepared for stress.
  • Obesity.
  • An abnormal temperature difference in the room, due to which, along with sweat, the child’s body tries to protect him from overheating or cold.
  • Impaired metabolism.
  • Experiencing stressful situations.
  • Presence of helminths.

If children aged 2–12 years begin to sweat frequently, get examined by a neurologist, endocrinologist, or pediatrician to identify the exact cause of this condition and successfully eliminate it.

Sweating in teenagers

Sweaty feet and palms at this age are observed due to puberty. Also, this phenomenon can occur due to a disturbed psycho-emotional state, disruptions in the thyroid gland, abnormal loads, genetic predisposition, diseases of internal organs or the development of diabetes.

If your feet sweat, you should start using foot sanitizers and shoe disinfectants from the age of 12.

Possible reasons

Let's start with the fact that after birth, a newborn's body adapts to the conditions of its environment for several months. Therefore, excessive sweating is not always a sign of illness. Premature babies more often than others suffer from excessive sweating of the palms, since such children are not at all adapted to fluctuations in air temperature and other features of the world around them.

Possible reasons why a baby's hands and feet sweat:

  • nutritional errors (overfeeding, complementary feeding too early);
  • too warm air in the room;
  • poisoning;
  • excess weight;
  • clothing made from artificial materials;
  • excessive consumption of breast milk or fluids;
  • excessive wrapping;
  • heredity.

Also, a baby’s hands and feet often sweat when they are scared, in a stressful situation, crying or screaming. This is a natural reaction of the body that does not need to be alarmed. Even adults break into sweat in moments of danger or stress, let alone small children. But parents need to try to ensure that the environment around the baby is calm and peaceful. A bad mood in a mother or father, talking in a raised voice, screaming - all this on an unconscious level causes anxiety and restlessness in babies.

Long-term or improper use of certain medications can also cause constantly wet extremities. In such cases, it is better to consult a doctor about the advisability of using certain medications.

What to do if you are sweating?

To stop hot feet and excessive sweating from bothering you, you need to follow the rules of hygiene, wear only high-quality underwear and socks, and comfortable shoes.

When going for a walk, dress children exactly the same as yourself, without wrapping them up. It is also necessary to create a comfortable temperature in the room. Make sure you eat properly, spend time actively with your children, and monitor their condition. After consulting with your doctor, you can start taking vitamins to strengthen your immune system.

If a bone has formed on your toe, or a splinter has gotten into your foot, causing your foot to become hot, steam your feet in water with soda. After 20 minutes, the splinter is removed, and the feet themselves are wiped dry and lubricated with cologne and iodine. The soles will stop burning. If a splinter gets in, it needs to be removed so that inflammation and abscess do not appear.

The splinter is also carefully removed from the child's finger. To do this, steam your finger, distract the child’s attention and, taking a needle, try to pull out the foreign body. After removing it, lubricate your finger with an antiseptic.

A hot foot is sometimes soothed with a compress. Pour 30 grams of hop cones or pine buds with a glass of boiling water. Let sit for 60 minutes. Soak a linen or cotton cloth in the resulting product and wrap it around your feet for 20 minutes.

Now you know why the feet and palms of children and adults burn. If sweating is not caused by overheating or fatigue, you need to go to the doctor, since such a phenomenon may be a symptom of a disease that needs treatment.

Obolonin Alexey, writes October 15, 2013, 12:20 Mikhailovka, 39 years old

Gender: Male Required: pediatrician

Hello, please advise which doctor should I consult, the child is 4 years old, before going to bed he complains that his feet are burning, he cannot fall asleep without wet socks, what could this be?

This sensation occurs when, after a spasm of the blood vessels in the foot, they suddenly expand with increased blood flow. Trying to compensate for the stagnation that occurred during the spasm, the body increases blood flow, and the feet feel as if they are burning.

Possible causes: flat feet, wearing tight, uncomfortable shoes, rubber shoes. Sometimes the cause is vascular pathology or elevated blood sugar. This may be due to increased sensitivity to the material from which the insoles of shoes or socks are made.

Consult a pediatric surgeon (preferably an orthopedist and vascular surgeon) and do a blood sugar test.

In any case, they bring relief: contrasting foot baths, alternating warm (not hot) and cool water. Start and end with cool water, only 5-10 minutes, finish with cool water, wet your feet, but do not rub. This strengthens blood vessels well. You can also pour peas into the bath so that the child walks on it for 5 minutes, 1-2 times a day. Or buy a wooden rocking massager with spikes.

Many parents encounter a situation where the child has a high fever and cold extremities. What to do in this case? An increase in temperature in a child is a natural reaction of the body to an irritant in the form of an infection or bacteria.

Antipyretics should not be used immediately. It is necessary to give the body the opportunity to cope with the disease on its own. As a result, stronger immunity will be developed, which will minimize the susceptibility to diseases in the future.

But the above should be observed only if the fever is not accompanied by cooling of the hands and feet. If such symptoms are present, other methods must be used.

Why does a child have hot hands and feet but no temperature?

for yourself, what to do in critical situations, how to behave REPOST On one of the forums living on the vastness of our vast Internet, I recently published an article in my diary about how we almost lost our child, the comments left on this article made me think that not all mothers (and this is natural) know how to act in such situations. I will give it below so that you understand that this can happen, but everyone can cope with it. After the article I will describe other methods of medical care. So, here is that same article:

“We did the last DTP + polio on Tuesday. Even before injecting the medicine, honey. the sister warned that the last DTP is very difficult, so when you come home, without waiting for anything, immediately put on an antipyretic candle and constantly monitor the temperature. So I did.

In the evening, before going to bed, I lit another candle for her. The next one was delivered at 1 am. I went to bed and failed, I didn’t hear the alarm clock, because I set it for 1 hour to control the child. At 4:40 a.m., it was as if something had thrown me out of bed, and I went into the room to check on my daughter. I turned on the light, went up to the crib, touched my forehead, realized that she was hot, but her legs were icy, and just started to turn around to take the thermometer, when my daughter began to have convulsions before my eyes. Girls, this is very scary, and, most importantly, do not panic in this situation. I took her in my arms, grabbed the Nurofen candle, and put it down. My daughter is shaking, but her body is like stone, I put her upright in my arms, she starts to stop breathing and something similar to gag reflexes, only with foam at the mouth, I turn her over with her back to me, tilt her so that she doesn’t choke, parallel I’m trying to wake her up (since she’s sleeping, and I know that under no circumstances should a child be allowed to sleep in this state). I shout to my husband to wake up and immediately put the kettle on boil. While the kettle is boiling, I ask him to crush half a tablet of no-shpa and add 3 drops of Corvalol.

My daughter’s temperature turns out to be not that high, only 38.2. I sit down on the sofa, put her on my lap and start talking to her in a calm voice so that she doesn’t “fail”, but stays conscious. At the same time, the convulsions continue, her body acquires a real gray color, and her lips become almost black, the color of wet asphalt. At this moment, the kettle has already boiled, we wrap it in a blanket, put it at the daughter’s feet, and wrap her legs in a blanket, while she herself is undressed, and put a cold towel on her head. I continue to talk to her, I have a lump in my throat, but I understand that I’m done shaking the child.

I call the emergency room, explain the situation, they say, this and that, the child may have a reaction to the vaccine, convulsions against the background of a high temperature. At the other end of the line they ask me: “What measures have you taken?” I tell him, I get the answer: “Mom, you did everything right, so now just watch the child, if the seizures resume, give 2 more drops of Corvalol, but if the temperature gets higher or you can’t cope, then call again, we will come to you.” ", the phone hangs up! What kind of “call again if you can’t handle it”? I was waiting for the doctor to come and give my child an anticonvulsant!!!! AT LEAST!!!!!!

We kept her conscious for an hour, measuring her temperature every 5 minutes and renewing the towel on her head. My hair turned 30% gray overnight. An hour later the situation stabilized, we waited until the morning and called a doctor from the clinic, who was simply horrified by the emergency response.

The next night (that is, today) the situation was directly proportional to the previous night. At 9 pm the child’s temperature is 38.6. I gave her Nurofen in a mixture (it didn’t help us at all), at 23.00 the temperature was the same, I gave her 1/4 of analgin. At 00.00 the child’s temperature is 37.2, at 00.12 the temperature is 36.6, after another 10 minutes it is 36.0, and after another 10 the temperature drops to 35.3. Again a hot kettle at my feet, it seemed to be starting to rise, it rose to 35.5, I fell asleep with my daughter next to me on the sofa. I wake up an hour later, my daughter is all cold (this is provided that she is dressed, lying next to me under two blankets), and her breathing is so slow that it is almost inaudible. I measure the temperature, the mercury does not reach the beginning of the scale (the scale on our thermometer starts at 35 degrees). It turned out that it is even more difficult to get a child out of this state, since it is very difficult to wake up, she tried for a long time to wake up (she was just like a rag, hanging there, no matter how hard you take her), woke her up, gave her hot, strong and sweet-sweet tea, raised the temperature to 35 ,4…. Well, in general, this is how we got out. Next week we are going to see a neurologist at the diagnostic center about seizures...

Instead of a conclusion:

My friend’s mother-in-law doesn’t believe that her daughter has a fever every time after vaccination, my mother believes me, but constantly says that she raised 3 children and no one had any reactions.

Today my mother-in-law (she is a doctor) called me and also said that not only did Andrei (my husband) not have such reactions to vaccinations, but also in clinics for each such case (we are talking about healthy children who still have reactions occurred) there was an investigation and verification, since such reactions could be caused by improper storage of the vaccine, or improper administration, as well as poorly purified vaccines.

From here I draw the following conclusions: earlier, under the Soviet system, all production was in the hands of the state, control was strict and thorough. Afterwards, when all the enterprises were sold and registered as private individuals, commerce came into play. And now the main thing is not the methods of storing the vaccine, but the kickback received on a hairy paw.

Quite often mothers are warned that after vaccination they must monitor the child’s temperature, as the “immune temperature”, as they call it, allegedly rises. And this is not the first time I’ve heard from people of the older generation that before there was not even such a concept as “immune temperature,” nor was there a temperature itself in children after vaccinations.”

At home there should always be antipyretics (children's suppositories, potions, but you shouldn't place high hopes on suppositories and potions alone, so analgin and aspirin must be present), but-spa, Corvalol and antihistamines (if, suddenly, allergic edema begins).

Children (up to 3 years old) are given in the following dosage:

Antipyretic:

1/4 analgin

1/4 aspirin + 1/8 analgin (aspirin works well for adults, but children should be very, very careful, as it can cause hidden bleeding, in no case should it be given for intestinal infections, it is better to use analgin)

No-shpa:

For cramps 1/2 tablet

For cold extremities against a background of high temperature – 1/2 tablet

Antihistamine - according to the instructions.

Heat:

Just a high temperature of 38.2 - give an antipyretic

Temperature 38.6 and above - undress the child, give an antipyretic and 2-3 drops of Corvalol per tablespoon of water (to make the heart easier to bear the heat, as well as a drop in temperature), you can wipe the child with some water (no need to mix water with vodka , plain water is enough), you can put gauze soaked in an vinegar-water solution on your wrists and shins.

Causes of fever in a child

The temperature is not caused by the disease, but by the hypothalamus, a part of the brain. It commands the temperature to increase to kill bacteria, this happens when interferon is produced.

If fever does not appear, interferon is not produced. The same thing happens when the temperature is deliberately brought down with medicine. This leads to immune system disorders. The body is able to raise the temperature to the desired level and lower it when the bacteria are destroyed.

Causes of cold hands

One of the reasons for cold hands, in addition to infection, is considered to be overheating - when the child is wrapped up too tightly. This effect is observed in the following cases:

  • prolonged exposure to the sun;
  • wrapping;
  • too hot room.

It is then that the heat rises and the hands remain cold. Sometimes my nose bleeds, I feel dizzy and nauseous. These signs indicate that vasospasm is occurring. It turns out that there is not enough blood flowing to the hands. Then it is urgent to make sure that the baby does not overheat, give him liquids in large volumes.

Fever has dangerous consequences - it creates extra stress on the heart and lungs, speeds up metabolism, and disrupts the functioning of the nervous system. This situation is especially dangerous for infants and children under one year of age.

Causes of cold feet

The cause of cold feet at high temperatures is white (or pale) fever. In this condition, the following symptoms are observed:

  • shortness of breath and chills;
  • pulse exceeds normal;
  • the child is delirious;
  • pale and dry skin;
  • cold extremities at general temperature.

It is delirium tremens that causes cold extremities. Why does this happen at high temperatures?

In a normal state, blood flows evenly through the vascular system, but when white fever begins and the heat rises, blood rushes to the internal organs in greater quantities, and at the same time the vessels in the legs and arms spasm, preventing blood flow to them . It turns out that the hands and feet remain cold.

Clinical manifestations

Hyperthermia manifests itself in different ways:

  • in the form of red fever - pink cover, moist skin, but the baby feels relatively well;
  • white (pale) fever - the hands and feet become cold, but the body itself becomes hot. I am worried about chills, the skin turns pale, the condition is quite serious.

Treatment

The child’s foot is finally formed only by the age of 12, so many problems found by specialists and parents themselves at a more tender age can and should be corrected before this moment, says Dr. Komarovsky.

Typically, treatment for both flat feet and hallux valgus is aimed at strengthening the ligamentous apparatus, foot muscles, and forming the arch. For this purpose, foot baths, therapeutic massage, magnetic therapy, electrophoresis, swimming, and physical therapy are prescribed. In case of congenital pathology, the lower limbs are immobilized using plaster. If all these measures do not achieve the desired effect, the child may be recommended surgery.

If the defect is not treated and corrected, in the case of severe deformation, the child faces subsequent disability , since the increased load on the knee and hip joints causes deformation and destruction of them, which leads to irreversible changes in the functions of the musculoskeletal system.

Additional symptoms

Hyperthermia is sometimes accompanied by the following symptoms:

Marbled leather

A network of vessels. This is not a disease, but a vascular reaction to an irritant. It occurs more often in infants under six months of age. If the child is older and this phenomenon bothers him, he should consult a doctor.

Diarrhea and vomiting

Signal of intestinal disease. Vomiting also occurs during heat stroke; in this case, there is general dehydration in the body, and there may be blood in the stool.

Headache

More often it warns of ARVI, but tumor development processes are also possible. When the heat rises, blood flow increases, which increases the pressure inside the skull, causing headaches.

Hot body but cool head

This is how the fever begins. The forehead is cold, but the body and part of the head are hot. In this state, a state of almost fainting may occur, sometimes accompanied by delusions and hallucinations. Don't hesitate, call an ambulance.

Reduced pressure

This often means that the body is infected with a virus. Blood pressure decreases due to decreased tone and the release of certain hormones. For five days, it is necessary to measure the child’s temperature three times a day, and the pressure twice. If after this time the condition does not improve, you should consult a doctor and undergo an examination.

When to see a doctor

Parents should be alert to the situation when, for example, only the feet or only the palms of a newborn sweat. Additional warning signs:

  • wet extremities that feel cool or icy to the touch;
  • the baby is restless, sleeps little;
  • sweat has a specific smell and causes skin irritation;
  • sweating is too profuse and frequent.

The production of increased amounts of sweat is medically called “hyperhidrosis.” The cause of this condition is unknown, but it is associated with either an overreaction of the nervous system or an excessive number of sweat glands. At the beginning of the development of pathology, only the hands and feet of the baby sweat. In this case, sweat is characterized by a rather noticeable sour odor. This problem needs to be treated immediately, because in adolescence and older age it will greatly impair the quality of life.

But sometimes the true cause of this condition is dangerous pathologies of internal organs or systems. With secondary disorders, the baby most often sweats over the entire surface of the body:

  1. Rickets. This is probably the first thing that comes to mind for a mother looking for an answer to the question of why her 3-month-old baby’s feet sweat. But you need to pay attention to other characteristic features - baldness of the back of the head, restless sleep, poor appetite, slow overgrowth of the fontanel. If you ignore such alarming signs, the situation will worsen - deformation of the limbs and head will begin.
  2. Lymphatic diathesis. Characterized by uneven sweat production on different parts of the body.
  3. Vegetovascular dystonia. Improper functioning of blood vessels leads to the fact that the baby's hands and feet sweat.
  4. Hypertonicity. Since the muscles are constantly tense, the baby keeps his hands closed into fists, which is why they sweat.
  5. Heart diseases. In this case, your palms and feet will be wet and cold.
  6. Infections. Not only the limbs sweat, but also the forehead and neck.

Other possible pathologies are diabetes mellitus, parasite infection, malfunction of the thyroid gland, and genetic pathologies. Therefore, if parents feel anxious, there is no need to waste time looking for why the child’s feet are sweating for 3 months, but immediately contact a pediatrician and undergo the necessary examinations, taking a blood test, urine test, sweat test, and ultrasound.

What to do if you have a chill

  • rub the body with alcohol or vinegar;
  • wrap up;
  • give aspirin;
  • apply cold compresses to the entire body, only to the forehead. The towel should be cool.

  • Create a temperature in the room no higher than 20 degrees.
  • Rub your baby's legs and arms with your own hands.
  • Give your baby plenty of fluids to drink.
  • To relieve spasm, give the child No-Shpu, Drotaverine or use Papaverine suppositories. Next, give an antihistamine - Zyrtec, Suprastin, etc. They will enhance the effect of drugs that relieve spasms.
  • When the limbs turn pink, blood circulation has been restored and the fever can be reduced. Use paracetamol-based medications.
  • If the condition does not improve, take the child to the hospital.

What does a fever indicate against the background of cooling hands and feet?

This signals a failure in thermoregulation. As the temperature rises, the blood becomes thicker and circulates poorly. Cold extremities with general hyperthermia signal the onset of white fever.

White fever occurs due to viruses - influenza, ARVI. Scarlet fever, measles, whooping cough and other similar diseases also cause pale fever. Problems with the nasopharynx (pharyngitis, laryngitis, etc.) cause this condition.

The main signs of "white" fever

This problem is characterized by the following symptoms:

  • cold extremities;
  • pale skin - even blue lips and nails;
  • the baby is shivering, and he cannot warm up even under the blanket;
  • fast heart rate;
  • hyperthermia to a high level;
  • Sometimes severe toxicosis manifests itself - either weakness, or, conversely, severe anxiety and agitation.

Why is high temperature dangerous?

Elevated temperature is dangerous due to so-called febrile convulsions; this condition most often occurs in preschool children. Everything must be done to prevent this. But if this happens, proceed like this:

  • Place your baby on his side on a hard surface. Turn your head towards the floor - this way vomit will not enter the respiratory tract;
  • remove dangerous objects around so that the baby does not get injured;
  • Do not pour antipyretic medications into the mouth, otherwise he will choke. Use the candles;
  • call an ambulance.

When to lower a child's body temperature

Most experts advise taking fever-reducing medications in the following cases:

  • a completely healthy baby does not have neurological problems, metabolic disorders or diseases of the cardiovascular system, but hyperthermia reaches 39-39.5. Look at the general condition. If the child tolerates high indicators well, it’s better not to knock him down;
  • children under six months of age, as well as older children with additional health problems. If you feel unwell, the fever is brought down at 38.5 - with the axillary measurement, or 38.9 - with the rectal measurement.

What medications can relieve spasms?

The spasm, which leads to chills and cold extremities, is relieved with antispasmodics. Doctors prefer to give Papaverine or No-Shpu. They affect sweating, bringing it back to normal, which helps reduce fever.

No-Shpa (Drotaverine)

It has an antispasmodic effect, but it must be used as prescribed by a doctor and in the amount that he specifies. The active substance of the antispasmodic is drotaverine. Dilates blood vessels, helping to improve blood circulation and solve the problem of cold hands and feet. Does not apply to medications that reduce fever.

Use of lytic mixture

This is an intramuscular injection that relieves high fever, removes spasms, normalizes the baby’s condition, improves blood flow, helping to warm the legs and arms. The composition is mixed only by a qualified person, otherwise there is a risk of harming the child if the proportions are incorrect.

Papaverine

Papaverine is used from 6 months of age. Available as tablets, suppositories, injections. For children there is a children's version of the medicine. It should be taken 20 minutes before taking antipyretics. If you do not observe the interval, vasodilation will occur later, and thermoregulation will not be restored in time.

How to give your child antipyretics

With rising temperatures starting from 38 degrees, pay attention to your arms and legs, because... If such symptoms appear, then the temperature will rise sharply, and you need to take action in time.

  1. 1/4 tablet of no-shpa up to 3 years old or 1/2 for those older than 3 (but no more than 1 tablet per day!) - preferably 10-20 minutes before the antipyretic, but that’s how it goes...
  2. Strip naked immediately. But!.. Put a hot heating pad on your feet and wrap them in a warm blanket, rub your hands (and feet too) intensively. Apply a cool compress to the forehead and armpits. Ours reacted very badly to wet compresses and kicked - they began to wrap cold wet rags in polyethylene, and cover them with a thin cloth on top - and then put such rollers under the armpits.
  3. Do not wipe your body with cold water! This, on the contrary, can contribute to vasospasm!
  4. Give antipyretics not according to age, but according to the child’s weight! Paracetamol - 10-15 mg/kg (no more than 4 times a day, maximum daily dose - 60 mg/kg/day). Ibuprofen - 5-10 mg/kg (no more than 3 times a day, maximum daily dose - 20 mg/day). Remember that antipyretics begin to act 20-40 minutes after administration! It’s easier for kids under 3 years old - candles start to work faster, stock up on them. Remember that you don’t have to do it every time, and if paracetamol didn’t help last time, ibuprofen might as well not work this time. Alternate!
  5. Drink constantly! Either a sip, or through a funnel - whatever you want! If your child is dehydrated, no antipyretics will help you!
  6. If you see that antipyretics do not work, and the temperature is rising, do not hesitate, call an ambulance!

Additional recommendations

It is extremely important to combine antipyretics and antispasmodics under the supervision of a physician. You cannot decide on your own which drugs to combine. Only a pediatrician can say for sure.

What happens when the ambulance arrives

It is not necessary that the baby will be taken to the hospital. Doctors often give consultations over the phone. If the ambulance team does arrive, they can simply inject the necessary injections. If the condition is truly serious, hospitalization will be suggested. But only you can give final consent or write a refusal to be hospitalized.

High fever and cold extremities in a child: what Dr. Komarovsky advises

You should not give a fast-acting fever-reducing drug - it will only intensify the spasm. Avoid applying cold compresses all over your body. It is advisable to give an antispasmodic to restore blood circulation, but follow the dosage. The antispasmodic helps to dilate blood vessels, restoring blood circulation.

This solves the problem of cold hands and feet. Rub your limbs to bring blood to them. Give plenty of fluids, but not diuretics.

White fever, when there is fever and cold extremities, is caused by viruses and microorganisms. It could be a common cold, but it could also be the flu. Therefore, do not hesitate and call your family doctor at home.
