Question
My child’s mouth and forehead are hot, but their feet are cold. Every time I take their temperature, it’s over 36 degrees Celsius. I’m not sure if the thermometer is broken. She’s been feeling under the weather for the past couple of days. Is she actually feverish?
Answer
I’m glad to help clarify this for you! Based on the situation you’ve described, does your child have any other discomforts? I suggest you replace the thermometer with a new one for measurement. You can also use this thermometer to check someone else’s temperature to ensure it’s working correctly. These are my suggestions for the question ‘Is my child sick? Their mouth and forehead are hot, but their feet are cold.’ I hope this helps and wish you and your family good health!
