What Causes The Head Warm And Face And Lips Chilling In A 14 Month Old?
My 14 month old boy is unwell he is hot on his head/forehead but his face and lips are cold to touch! He is teething and sounds like he is getting a cold, last night his temp was 39.9c which we reduced with Nurofen, he has eaten his dinner in the last hour and was laughing but changed quite quickly
