Patient's question:
These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I don't want to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feel like my heart is racing, and don't feel very well. If it gets worse, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. By the way, does high fever in children cause cold hands and feet?Doctor's answer:
Babies with fever but cold hands and feet are commonly seen in clinical practice. The child may have a high fever but with cold hands and feet, and as the temperature gradually drops, their hands and feet will slowly warm up. This is actually a phenomenon of pseudo-cold and true heat. Although the child's hands and feet are cold, their internal organs are still in a feverish state, which is particularly common in infants under 3 years old.Based on the symptoms you mentioned, it is primarily caused by an upper respiratory infection. Treatment should focus on antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and cough-relieving measures. You can take pediatric Aminophenylbutazone Granules, Pediatric Cough and Asthma Relief Granules, and drink plenty of water.
