A. 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 temxperature 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 forx development) which is normal.

A. hello would be better to check the temperature using a thermometer and the temperature is above the normal level it is due to fever and you will have to give paracetamol and any concern it would be better to check with your doctor and she can guide you accordingly
