What should I do if my child has a high fever but cold hands and feet?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't want to, either. I always can't sleep at night, sometimes feeling anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. What should I do if a child has a high fever but cold hands and feet?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, you can first use alcohol to bathe for fever reduction, and then identify the cause of the fever. There are many reasons that can cause fever, the most common being infections, followed by connective tissue diseases, malignant tumors, etc. Don't rush to take medication. Based on the symptoms you mentioned, it is mainly caused by low immunity leading to viral invasion, resulting in cold-like symptoms. Treatment should focus on antiviral measures. You can take children's Gan Huang Na Min Granules, Ribavirin, and drink plenty of water.
