Question

What should I do if my child has a fever of 37.7 degrees Celsius and their hands and feet are cold?

Answer

You can try cooling your child’s forehead with a damp cloth, or mix alcohol or white wine with warm water to wipe the child’s neck, armpits, and groin area. These areas have larger blood vessels, which help dissipate heat. At the same time, be sure to maintain the child’s body temperature and avoid catching a cold.
