Brief Answer:
Kindly check her temperature by thermometer

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to the HCM

I understand your concerns but don't worry. Kindly check her axillary temperature by a clinical thermometer. In case it's higher than 100 degrees Fahrenheit which suggests fever, you may give her Syp. Acetaminophen. Repeat the dose at 6-8 hours interval if fever persists.

Most of the fevers in this age group are due to self limiting viral illnesses. They usually improve over a days with only symptomatic management.

In case, your child seems to have any other symptoms, do contact us.

Hopefully this will help you.
Take care

Don't worry. If the body temperature is 98 degrees Fahrenheit, then you should not be worried about just warm hands and feet. It's perfectly normal in warm environment. Just keep her well hydrated.
