What to do if your baby's palms and soles are hot when he is one year old

The child has just come into this world from the mother's womb. Without the protection of the mother's womb, the immunity is low and it does not have a good resistance to the bacteria in the world. Therefore, it is very susceptible to bacterial infection and inflammation. When the palms and soles of the feet of a one-year-old baby are hot, parents should consider whether there is a problem with the child's stomach and intestines, and check whether the child has symptoms of poor digestion or food accumulation in time.

Why is the palms and soles of the one-year-old baby hot?

First of all, because the baby's body temperature is normal, it means that he does not have a fever, so this is internal heat. The place where babies are most likely to suffer from internal heat is the gastrointestinal system. Under normal circumstances, the probability of babies suffering from constipation is very high, especially children who drink milk powder are most likely to suffer from constipation. The food they eat is not digested well and is accumulated in the body, gradually forming internal heat. When encountering this situation, parents should consciously regulate the baby's stomach and intestines.

If the baby's palms are hot, it means that there is internal heat, which is mostly caused by poor gastrointestinal digestion and lasts for a long time. But occasionally it is due to cold and cough, especially when the weather gets cold. Symptoms such as cold and cough indicate that the child's body is in a sub-healthy state. The temperature of the palms and soles of the feet rises at night, which is the baby's immune system performing the body's cleansing function. As long as the baby's runny nose and cough are significantly reduced at night, there is no big problem. In addition to taking medicine as prescribed by the doctor, the thickness of the quilt should not be controlled well at night.

Is the fever in the child's hands and feet caused by indigestion?

Not necessarily. It is also possible that the child has caught a cold. You can tap the child's belly and listen to the sound. If your baby's palms and soles are hot, indigestion is one of the reasons, but it is mainly caused by heat in the body. Be sure to let your baby drink plenty of water and eat more cool foods such as fruit juice and vegetable juice, otherwise it is very likely to develop a fever.

Here we need to remind all parents that if their children’s hands and feet are hot, feverish, or have indigestion, they must not panic or give their children medicine casually. Generally speaking, you can first help your child pinch his spine, or rub the Yongquan point and Zhongwan point, which can effectively relieve the symptoms of indigestion in children. But if these methods do not have very good therapeutic effects, the child can only be treated with oral medication. Usually, after children finish their meals, parents can take their children for a walk outdoors, which can effectively prevent symptoms of indigestion in children.

When a one-year-old baby has hot palms and soles, you should pay special attention to measuring the child's body temperature to see if he has a fever or other problems. If he has a fever, it means the condition will be more serious. Children's digestive ability is relatively weak. If you don't want them to often have hot palms and soles, you should pay attention to the method when feeding them to avoid food accumulation in babies.
