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 wacrm head palm and soles. you have to consider it as fever only if the temperature in the armxpit is 100f or more. the warm head palms and soles are due to hyperdynamic circulation in these areas which is normal.
