A. it is very normal for small children to have slightly warm head palms and soles but when you take the temperature and in the armpit of the child and if it is 100 or more than only you have to consider it as Shiva and give Paracetamol otherwise no treatment is given and you can just do body sponge to decrease the surface temperature
