What is the reason for children's fever and cold hands and feet

No matter what the circumstances, the most concerned people in the family are the children. Because of their physical constitution, children are more prone to illness, which makes parents worry. Among them, there are cases where babies have cold hands and feet when they have a fever, so many parents want to know what is the reason for cold hands and feet in children when they have a fever? Let’s take a look at it together, and I hope everyone can gain something from the introduction below.

Cause and condition

1. If the baby is infected by bacteria, her own system will protect herself to a great extent. If the body temperature does not rise, it will circulate heat and concentrate a large amount of heat in the center of the body, so this may cause cold hands and feet.

2. If the baby's body temperature is high and feels hot to the touch, it means the baby has started to have a fever. At this time, do not add clothes to the baby and wrap the baby up. You can use alcohol swabs to wipe the baby's palms, soles of feet or forehead to help the baby cool down, and give the baby some warm water.

3. In many cases, the baby will be soaked and sweat a lot. You need to wipe the sweat off the baby's body in time and change the baby into clean clothes, otherwise it may clog the pores and prolong the baby's cooling process.

In short, babies usually have fever because of viral infection, and you must believe that the baby’s own resistance is actually not weak at all. Don’t worry, treat it yourself first, and then go to the doctor if it doesn’t work. Don’t let your baby take medicine indiscriminately.

1. Use antipyretics correctly. If the child's body temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees, antipyretic drugs are generally not needed, but changes in body temperature should be closely monitored. If the child's body temperature reaches 39 degrees, in order to prevent heat cramps, under the guidance of a doctor, choose appropriate antipyretics for treatment, or use physical cooling methods, such as rubbing warm water on the armpits, groin, palms, soles of the feet and other areas with rich blood flow.

2. During treatment, you should drink more boiled water, which can not only replenish the lack of fluid in the body, but also help reduce fever. You can also take a hot bath to help cool down. Pay attention to your diet and don't eat too much meat. You should also rub your child's hands and feet frequently to promote blood circulation.

When the baby is sick, the most important thing parents can do during this period is not to be too anxious, which will delay treatment and cause many problems. Find a good treatment method. Through the introduction above, you will know a lot about the situation of children having fever and cold hands and feet. I believe that if you stick to good treatment methods, your baby will recover faster.
