What is the reason why the child's head is cool after taking fever-reducing medicine?

Patient's question:

Three-year-old baby had a fever on the 20th during the day and was given fever-reducing medicine which made it better. On the 21st, he was fine during the day but had very warm legs and feet at night while sleeping, with a cool head. By morning, his legs and feet were no longer warm. What could be the reason?
Medical history and effectiveness: Previously, the fever was resolved after taking medicine, and this situation had never occurred before.
What kind of help do you need: What should I do now?

Doctor's answer:

Babies often develop high fever due to colds or catching a chill. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can appropriately give your baby oral doses of small tablets of paracetamol, ibuprofen granules, cefixime granules, and two tablets of pediatric gancao granules for treatment. At the same time, muscle injections of analgin, lincomycin, and dexamethasone can help stabilize symptoms quickly. You don’t need to worry too much. During this time, pay attention to giving your baby plenty of fluids. Wishing your baby a healthy growth.
