What Causes Cold Hands And Feet While Treating Chronic Cough And Fever?

My 11 yr old Autistic daughter has a bad cough and is wheezing . She has a small fever of 101.1. I noticed that her hand and feet are ice cold . Is this normal. I also assume that she is freezing because she put on she was walking around with her heated weighted blanket around her shoulders.

Dear parent,
this is quite common to have very cold feet and hand. Kindly check for anemia ASAP. In the mean time make her wear gloves and socks to keep her hands and feet warm. If she has bad cough give her steam and see if she can gargle warm saline water. She has wheezing too, I will like to suggest to visit nearest doctor immediatey
