Children have a faster metabolic rate, so the temperature of their hands and feet is relatively high, and sometimes they may sweat frequently. But some parents have found that sometimes touching their children's little hands is not very hot, even cold. Many parents believe that this is due to their children wearing too little clothing, so what is the reason for a 3-year-old baby catching a cold? Let's take a look with the editor.
What causes a 3-year-old baby to have cold hands
If a child's hands are cold, it should be considered to be caused by anemia. Because of poor blood circulation in the body, it causes cold hands and feet. In traditional Chinese medicine, it refers to the consequences caused by qi deficiency and blood deficiency. In addition, if the weather is cold and the baby wears less, they will feel cold and their hands and feet will naturally become cold.
What should a 3-year-old baby do if they catch a cold
If the temperature in the environment where the baby is located is too low, it is necessary to promptly transfer the child to a warm environment and add clothes in a timely manner. However, it should be noted not to wear clothes that are too tight, as they can hinder blood circulation. Proper exercise can increase blood circulation and metabolism. Additionally, covering the baby too tightly can easily lead to illness. If the child's body temperature is found to be relatively high, it is necessary to give the child some fever reducing medication in a timely manner. After the body temperature returns to normal, the hands will no longer be cold.
A child's palm should be warm under normal circumstances, neither sweating nor too cold. Once the temperature of the child's palm is found to be incorrect, it means that the child is not feeling very comfortable now. Parents need to add or remove clothing for the child in a timely manner, and be careful not to let the child get cold. Also, when it comes to dressing up, it's not always better to have more clothes, it's basically enough to be consistent with adults.
