Question
What should I do when my baby’s hands and feet feel cold and sweaty after the fever has subsided?
Answer
When you touch your baby’s hands or feet and they feel cold and sweaty, first check if their body feels warm and has a pinkish color. Infants’ circulatory systems are not yet fully developed, with blood mainly flowing to vital organs. The hands and feet are at the ends of the circulatory system, so they often feel cold and pale.
