Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. it is very normal for small children to have slightly warm/hot head palms and soles but if the growth of the child is proper no need to worry about the warm head palm and soles.
you have to consider it as fever only if the temperature in the armpit is 100°f / 37.7°c or more.
the warm head palms and soles are due to hyperdynamic circulation in these areas (that is necessary for development) which is normal.
It is very normal for small children that sometimes they will not pass stool for 10 days also and sometimes they will pass stool more than 7 to 8 times per day.
If the consistency of the stool is Semi solid to semi liquid do not worry about the frequency of the stool.
No medicines needs to be given in such a case but you have to meet the doctor only if the stool consistency is hard.
It is advisable to gived only milk to the child and nothing else before completion of 6 months of age.
intermittent crying of the child is due to colic pain and not due to constipation.

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl1 Year agoA. Look it is completely normal as per the age of the child so need not worry about it whatever you’re mentioning is fine and constipation can be there at a stretch for 10 days also so it’s not at all a problem both the things are completely fine so need not worry about either of them
