My child is 18 months old. She suffered from fever about 25 days ago. It takes about 8-9 days to get rid from illness. Now it is noticed that the temperature of her palms and head is high than rest of body. Whether it is a sign of any disease? What should I do? Please suggest.

Dear , temperature of a child should always be measured by a thermometer. A child has fever if the temperature is more than 100.4 degrees fahrenheit. Feeling the palms and head to be warm is not fever.
