Is it a disease if a child's mouth and forehead are hot, but their feet are cold?

Patient's question:

The child's mouth feels hot, forehead feels hot, hands feel hot sometimes but not always, feet are cold. Every time the temperature is measured, it's 36 degrees or more. I don't know if the thermometer is broken. Now she has a cold. Is she actually feverish? It's been two or three days.

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you! According to the situation you described, does the child have any other discomfort? It is recommended that you replace the thermometer for measurement. You can also use this thermometer to measure someone else's temperature. If the values are the same, it needs to be replaced. The above suggestions are for the question "Why is the child's mouth and forehead hot while their feet are cold?" I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
